No but it looks cool. I should totally get a tattoo of something written in traditional mongolian script, like "loyalty" or "strength" or something.

We used the same alphabet before the Swedes came actually...

Wish we could still use it

Mongolian writing is based on flipped Syriac writing, on which was also based the Arabic script. So yeah, they resemble each other somewhat.

In Genghis Khan's time, Mongolians were pagans and only in later centuries did Buddhism gradually take over from China. In fact at the time of independence in 1911, the country's population was shrinking due to nearly half of all its men being celibate Buddhist monks.

Mongol alphabet is without a doubt one of the most beautiful ones in the world.

Inspired Tolkien to create a variation of Elvish (Sarati).
