Монгол хэлний ойрад аялгууны зарим онцлог

Mongoliansof Mongolia speak four dialects: Khalkh, Oirat, Buryat and Uvurlugch (Inner Mongolian). Near Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia, the basic dialect of literary language (orientation) is the Khalkha dialect. However, Oirat is the more common dialectin the rest of Mongolia. Speakers of Oirat exist in the Republic of China and the Russian Federation. Oirat speakers live throughout a wide area. However, the Oirats in the Russian Republic of Kalmykia-Tangch have their own literary language. The language and dialect are used as independent languages. China s Xinjiang Oirats have been used for a literary language the Clear script (Тод бичиг) for many years. They have used Mongolian written language (based on old Mongolian vertical script) from 1990, so their language and dialect are common in Mongolia like other Oirat dialects. As Mongolian state Oirats have used Mongolian new literary language based on Cyrillic letter from 1940s. Their language and dialects have been developed like one of the Mongolian dialect. In addition, Mongolian vertical script, which Mongolians used for hundreds of years, has kept the characteristics of Oirat language. However, even this spoken and literary language was very different before the XVII century. Therefore, Oirat Mongolians have used Clear script literary language, which improved Mongolian literary language since 1648. Therefore, the Oirat dialect is very important compared to literary languages of Old Mongolian letter and Clear script. Moreover, comparing the Oirat dialect with the Khalkh dialect, the basic dialect of Mongolia, is greatly significant to recognize the Oirat dialect’s evolution and development. Accordingly, in this paper, we use these two methods to characterize the Oirat dialect, our principle of research.
