As a Halh Mongolian language teacher with 20 years of experience, I know how important it is to learn vocabulary related to family and relationships. This lesson will cover the basic Halh Mongolian vocabulary for different family members, kinship terms, and relationship statuses. By the end of this lesson, you will be able to communicate more effectively with Mongolian speakers about family and relationships.
Family Members
Here are the most commonly used Halh Mongolian words for various family members:
Halh Mongolian | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
ээж | eezh | wife |
аав | aav | husband |
ээд хүн | eed khun | father |

Note that Mongolians do not commonly use a general term for cousin, but instead differentiate between maternal and paternal cousins, using more specific kinship terms.
Kinship Terms
In addition to family member terms, it is also important to understand the various kinship terms used in Halh Mongolian. Here are a few examples:
- баатар - grandfather

- ээжийн туг - aunt (wife of father's brother)
- тат - uncle (mother's brother)
- дээж - aunt (mother's sister)
- өрөө - nephew/niece
- цагаан хүү - grandson
- цагаан ах - granddaughter
It is important to note that these terms may vary among different Mongolian tribes.
Relationship Status
Here are some common relationship status terms in Halh Mongolian:
Halh Mongolian | Pronunciation | English |
---|---|---|
гэнэт хүн | genet khun | single |
гэнэт ээж | genet eezh | single woman |
гэнэт аав | genet aav | single man |
хамт амьдрал | khamt amr̥dal | dating |

In addition to these terms, it may be useful to learn more specific phrases related to dating and romantic relationships.
