The official language in Mongolia is Mongolian. It’s spoken throughout the country and uses the Cyrillic alphabet, though some areas also use the traditional Mongolian script. Russian is widely understood among older generations, and English is becoming more popular among young people. In remote regions, you may hear dialects like Oirat or Buryat. Most Mongolians are proud of their language, which has a deep connection to the nation’s nomadic heritage. Visitors who learn a few Mongolian greetings are warmly welcomed. The language reflects Mongolia’s strong identity and history of independence.
