Le mongol appartient à la famille des langues altaïques. Il peut se diviser en deux dialectes. Le mongol périphérique et le mongol khalkha. Le premier est parlé par plus de 3 millions de locuteurs principalement en Chine (Mongolie intérieure). Il s'écrit en caractères chinois, langue à laquelle il fait par ailleurs de nombreux emprunts. Le second est, pour sa part, parlé par près de deux millions et demi de personnes, qui constituent les neuf dixièmes de la population de la Mongolie. On le pratique aussi en Russie et au Kirghizistan. 1, record 1, French, - mongol%20p%C3%A9riph%C3%A9rique

Le nom d'une entité habitée adopte le genre de son pseudo-générique, sous-entendu : «la Rome éternelle» (le nom d'une ville); «le Vieux-Montréal» (un nom de quartier). Le nom d'une ville située à l'extérieur du Canada et comprenant un article défini initial, adopte habituellement le genre de cet article : La Haye, Le Caire, La Nouvelle-Orléans. L'accord se fait cependant toujours au singulier, même si un élément du spécifique est pluriel : «(La ville de) Trois-Rivières est située sur (le) fleuve Saint-Laurent.». 6, record 2, French, - %C3%9Crumqi
