Cultural Corner - Age

April 25, 2017

Don't be surprised if Mongolians ask about your age. Mongolians ask your age because they want to know how to address you. Different words are used for whether you are older or younger than they are. However, if you don't want to answer, smile and say "нууц" (nuutse)- it's a secret.
