The Mongolian Script

The Mongolian script is, unlike the Chinese script, an alphabetical one so?

In the year 1204 it derived from the Uighurian and was adapted to the needs of the Mongolian language it was derived,
and personally I would have put "adapted to fit the needs..."


. The Uighurian script dates back to the Soghdian, which itself derived from the Aramaeian. The Uighurian–Mongolian script is still used in the People’s Republic of Mongolia today. However, Mongolians who live in Mongolia today write their language in Cyrillic letters, as do the Burjat tribes living in Russia.

Following Christianity, the individual lines of the Mongolian script run from top to bottom. this is a bit random, it needs to be put with something else to do with the script itself ie next to that alphabet bit
