Common Error Patterns

Uses base form (хорь) instead of linking form (хорин) before units

хорь→хорин, гуч→гучин, дөч→дөчин, тавь→тавин, жар→жарин, дал→далин.

Reverses units and tens

Mongolian: TENS first. хорин гурав (20+3), NOT гурав хорин.

Би хорин таван настай байна.

I am 25 years old.

хорин (20-linking) + тав (5) = хорин тав. настай = -тай comitative = 'with age of'.

Жарин найман хүн ирлээ.

68 people came.

жарин (60-link) + найм (8) = жарин найм. хүн stays singular — no plural after numbers.

Зуун жилийн дараа.

After a hundred years.

зуун = 100. жилийн = year's (genitive -н). дараа = after.
