Mongolic — The Mongolist

The Mongolist — the Secret History’s empire in its own words, hanzi transcription beside romanization.

The Mongolic-Tungusic lane, opening on Street’s romanized Secret History via Monumenta Altaica (use granted by the site’s maintainer, 2026-09-27) — the kaikki Manchu extract, the zh.wikisource hanzi transmission text and the Manchu corpus asks joining as they land.

The shelves

A source wears every desk it serves — these three answer this desk. Holdings are read live from the catalog and dated; a shelf with nothing synced yet says so.

Source Holds License Status Holdings (as of 7 November 2026)
altaica-shm texts attribution wired · manual 1 docs / 3,523 passages
ptg dictionary attribution wired · manual 4,276 entries
wiktionary-recon dictionary attribution wired · manual 376,415 entries

Languages on this desk (live doc-or-entry counts as of 7 November 2026): mnc 3,645 · san 1,070 · cmg 1,069 · lzh 1,069 · xng 1.

Carried in by multilingual packs (wiktionary-recon — whole-source members whose other languages ride along, as of 7 November 2026): zho 327,296 · xcl 8,541 · sga 6,688 · gem-pro 5,749 · gmw-pro 5,578 … and 19 more (nabu axis mongolic lists all).

The desk’s instruments

No desk-specific instruments curated yet — the generic surfaces above apply.

Working the mongolic desk

The generic desk surfaces — every desk answers to these, in working order (enable once, sync, then query):

nabu enable mongolic               # first time: put this desk's shelves in this box's profile
nabu sync mongolic                 # fetch/refresh the desk's enabled members
nabu list --axis mongolic          # the shelf census, this desk only
nabu axis mongolic                 # the desk card: members, holdings, gold coverage
nabu search WORD --axis mongolic   # a query scoped to this desk's shelves

One of the 30 research desks; the flat shelf map is The Library and the reasoning is docs/axes.md.
