Quote[edit | edit source]

As for the inhabitants of the once formidable empire, it is easy to learn a certain number of their words for the Russian-speaking, because in the Mongolian language, we often find a well-known word that at first slightly cuts the hearing. However, not so devile: in the homeland of Genghis Khan, the combination of three letters does not act as an obscenity, but as a root, forming a multitude of words for different purposes. One should not be surprised by such a phenomenon: because it is the invasions of the Mongol horde that have enriched" our speech with this vocabulary.
