Some time ago, I gurgled about the foreign language children's books that had rolled in, some of which I expected to make it across my desk eventually. Well, today I got my first batch: The non-Roman scripts no one else could handle. Which turned out to Arabo-Persian, Japanese, Korean, and...well, I'll let you figure this one out yourselves. I'll give you the first line of the text and you tell me what you think it is:
Хадны суусар шөнөжин бөгтгөнөж мод зөөв.

There was the traditional Mongolian script, Arabic at some point, Phags-pa, Latin in the 30's, and now Cyrillic. There's motions to bring back traditional Mongolian, but right now few people have any knowledge of it ...
