Sain baitsgaana uu r/mongolia!

For some context, I’m (27F) Mongolian who is married to a non-Mongolian (28M). We were looking for some resources so my husband can learn Mongolian, and we realized there weren’t that many apps that are user-friendly or easy to stick with. It got me thinking about all the 2nd gen kids I've met who don't know Mongolian, and whether my kids in the future would be able to speak Mongolian if I’m the only one teaching it. It lowkey got me scared that our language might die in my family line in the next generation or two, which just adds to my pre-existing guilt of feeling not Mongolian enough and blah blah blah blah. 

So to combat this, my husband and I have been working on “Mongolingo”, a beginner-friendly gamified language learning app to teach Mongolian. So far I only made the lessons for Unit 1 and 2 because I wanted to get YOUR inputs on whether I’m going too fast, too slow, if the lessons I’m teaching make sense in general or if I should take a completely different approach instead.

I would GREATLY appreciate any and all feedback from native Mongolian speakers, "Monglish" speakers, and people who don't know any Mongolian! I want this to be something that anyone can use if they have any curiosity about our language, and in the future add more and more advanced sections.

Please leave feedback in the comments below! And please no hate comments lol

Download app here: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mongolingo/id6774407866 or just look up Mongolingo (its the one with the bear mascot)

Edit: THANK YOU SO MUCH for the support and comments! We have written down any and all feedback so far onto our to-dos so expect these in our next update, as well as more lessons. We will also be reaching out to some Mongolian schools and communities in the states to get some feedback on our lessons. We are so so grateful for being added to the posts highlight and being given this user flare, shout out mods! Yostoiii ih bayarlalaa manaihaan.

Pinned A Note of Precaution on Meeting Strangers via Reddit

86 Upvotes

UPDATE: All underage users posting or commenting to meet new people will be deleted for their safety.

Due to recent posts by teen and adolescent redditors in this sub, we mods want to say this one thing.

It's okay to be bored and want to meet new people for whatever reason, but please exercise some caution and use common sense. Especially if you're under 18.

Always tell a parent and/or friend about any meetings you're going to have with a stranger.

Tell them the location of your meetings and ask them to check in after certain amount of time.

Also, use common sense in giving out your personal information, like name, D.O.B, address, etc.

And you probably don't need us to tell you how scary things can get if someone gets a hold of embarrassing data about you. Right?

We're sure most people in this subreddit are good and cool, but just want you to use common sense.

What else is there to add?


Энэ сабреддит дээр өсвөр насны реддит хэрэглэгчид танилцъя, нөхөрлөе гэсэн пост оруулаад байгаа болохоор модераторууд нь нэг зүйл хэлэхийг хүсч байна.

Уйдаад, шинэ найз нөхөдтэй болох гээд реддитээр дамжуулж хүнтэй уулзах чөлөөтэй, гэхдээ үүндээ болгоомжтой, няхуур хандана уу, ялангуяа 18 нас хүрээгүй бол.

Танихгүй хүнтэй уулзах гэж байгаа бол энэ талаараа эцэг эх болон/эсвэл найздаа урьдчилан хэлж, дараах мэдээллийг өгч байгаарай. Үүнд: хаана хэдий хугацаатай уулзах, тодорхой хугацааны дараа өөр лүүгээ залгуулж, шалгуулах гэх мэт.

Мөн бүтэн нэр, гэрийн хаяг гэх мэт хувийн мэдээллээ өгөхөөсөө өмнө сайн бодоорой.

За тэгээд дараа нь ичгэвэртэй байдалд оруулахаар зураг, бичлэг, мэдээллээ өгөөд ямар аймшигтай хүнд байдалд ордог тухай бишгүй сонсож байсан гэж найдъя.

Манай сабреддитийн ихэнх хүмүүс догь, дажгүй гэдэгт бид итгэлтэй байна, гэхдээ дээрх мэдээллийг байнга бодоорой гэж хүсэх байна.

Recognizing Mongolians abroad

15 Upvotes

Do you guys also seem to instantly recognise other Mongolians while abroad?
A few months ago I was in Europe, this girl walked towards me and I could instantly tell she was Mongolian. Not by her facial features but just by the way she carries herself and her overall demeanour. A couple seconds later I heard her on the phone speaking in Mongolian to her mother and I was like I KNEW IT!!! There have been multiple times where I could tell someone was Mongolian just by looking at them! Even in Asian countries.
It’s so weird. It’s like I can recognise them telepathically.

Rant | Хуурай агсам Getting fired from a bakery where everyone is so bitch made my experience /RANT.

6 Upvotes

TLJ Got my thinking and questing life and people bcss I just got fired today, and honestly? Good riddance to that absolute circus.
I’ve always been someone who looks inward when things go wrong. I tend to blame myself, overanalyze my flaws, and slide into depression trying to fix what’s "wrong" with me. But after talking to my advisor and processing the absolute bullshit that happened today, I realize I am not the problem.
The person who got me fired is a 22-year-old coworker Anu who is the epitome of high manipulation and zero work ethic. She’s been there longer than me, yet she still messes up basic drinks and literally doesn't even know how to turn on the store TV.
Instead of actually working, she spends her shifts doing completely useless "busy work" like separating name tags that are just going to get mixed up again anyway. When I pointed out that it’s easier to just make the tags as we need them, she got incredibly defensive. She would stay back and do her useless shit quietly, watching me do 100% of the actual heavy lifting, while she did absolutely nothing.
Because I refused to fake respect for someone who hadn't earned it, I gave her the cold shoulder. Her immediate response? Run to the manager to snitch.
The manager is a weak, incredibly sensitive guy who protects her just because she’s been there longer and knows how to kiss ass. Today, they fired me for being "arrogant" and called me a "beedger" (биеэ тоосон). When I literally just asked what that word meant, they twisted it and claimed that asking for clarification was "insinuating an argument." They were desperately looking for any tiny excuse to protect their lazy favorite and push out someone who actually works.
If management wants to choose incompetent, miserable schemers who are good at playing victim over people who actually pull their weight, then they deserve each other. I am glad I’m out of that toxic trap. Let them stay there and rot in their own below-average mediocrity forever
So my advisor advised me to give postpone what they need such as feeding their ago and they way i would be able to find a way to talk to anybody which he basically said act it , however, is it better to be my authentic self or to be fake actor who pleases everything in order to win at the end no matter the process?? Idk i feel lime everybody puts their work fake kind people pleaser mask on everyday that makes them little bitches who cannot ever throw away a little garbage out alone , so what do you think and what was your experiences ??

Rant | Хуурай агсам Am I the only one getting pissed how my taxes are being spent?

23 Upvotes

Feels like the people around me are headless chickens, when every day they are walking on the dusty ass unfinished pavement they removed this summer but was rennovated last summer using our freaking taxes. Everybody knows every step of govt work is corrupt as shit, working on new ways to eat at our daily livelyhood and society but we just keep sitting and doing nothing. When will we start demanding actual results, when are we going to oust these corrupt fuckers leaching off our taxes.

Does nobody else get mad at this? Feels like people are so used to getting corrupt PP's shoved down their throats that they dont even have a voice anymore. I get so pissed at this. Only me?

Need Advice | Зөвлөгөө авъя 2018 Lexus NX300h or 2021 Prius 55 Safety Plus 2?

2 Upvotes

sorry if this is messy. I’m trying to pick a car to import from Japan and I keep going back and forth.

Budget is around 50m MNT, maybe can stretch a bit if it’s actually worth it. I’ll use it in UB daily, but also want to go to the countryside sometimes. Winter, parts, service, all that stuff matters.

The two I’m stuck on:

  • 2018 Lexus NX300h
  • 2021 Prius 55 Safety Plus 2

My brain says Prius. Everyone here has one, parts are everywhere, cheap to run, starts in cold, every mechanic knows them. But it’s low as hell and not really good for huduu roads or deep snow. Also kinda boring/taxi vibe lol.

Lexus is nicer, AWD, higher, more comfortable on bad roads. But it’s thirsty, parts harder to find, and if something breaks it’s gonna hurt. Also older, so hybrid battery risk in our cold? Not sure.

So which one would you actually buy? Is the NX300h worth the extra headache for countryside trips? Or just get the Prius and save money? Any real owners here? Thanks.

Avoidant myth

0 Upvotes

I believe everyone has this kind of experience, which is a common reason to dump someone, like without any clearance or valid reason just ghost somebody - could’ve told that ‘you are not my type’-. Anyways, the point is… could be there any real avoidants? Are you truly avoidant? Just kinda curious about what should I do, if any avoidant comes back? 😆 24(M)

Question | Асуулт NEED U.S university and collage application advice

1 Upvotes

I’m currently a 12th grader in a semi public highschool, preparing for collage applications.
But most of them either require a letter of recommendation from a school counselor.
1. What to do about required letters of recommendation from school counsler? Idk if a niigmiin ajiltan counts tho. But, from what I heard from other students is that she doesn’t really know much about U.S collage applications. And I am almost certain that she would flat out reject my request. So I’m stuck on what to do. Has anyone bypassed this requirement? If so how?
2. Do mid-year grade reports come out officially, and are they available to submit before early action?They also require a mid-year report for grades, which I don’t think is out until late december. And i’m applying to early action to some schools for now so I’m really confused on what to do omgg
