MONGOLIAN ENGLISH LESSON 25
Basic Structures and sentences Continuing from the previous lesson we have the following sentence from carpenter to the monk:
би сүхээ хөдөлгөж байсаи цагт хэнээр ч елзий хутаг гуйлгахуй гэжээ
That we can translate as:
I will use ax . I will ask your prayer for salvation
If you use google translator, this sentence would have been translated as:
Whenever I am moving, I ask for a man to wear a piece of wool
Below the details of the sentence:
Би = I am сүхээ = ax
Хөдөлгөж = moved
байсаи = waiting
хэнээр = by whom
ч елзий = even
хутаг Гуйлгахуй гэжээ = praying for salvation
