HISTORY OF THE MONGOLIAN TERMINOGRAPHICAL DICTIONARIES
The foundation for the development and establishment of scientific and technological terms
is from the beginning of the foundation of the State Commission on the Term under the Institute
of Scripture (Mongolian Academy of Science) in 1924.
The first Mongolian terminographical dictionary “Oros Latin Mongol gurvan niitset utgiin
urgamliin aimgiin ners” was published in 1931.
