| Popis | This paper introduces an exceptional Cyrillic manuscript of a prophetic text found among Altai Urianhai (Bulgan sum, Bayan-Ölgii aimag, Mongolia), representing a popular transcription based on a Clear script manuscript originated in 1960s–1970s. The paper includes a comparison of the Cyrillic manuscript with three versions in the Mongolian script and one version in the Clear script together with a translation of one version in the Mongolian script. The manuscript Cyrillic version of the prophecy has recorded features of the literary pronunciation of the Clear script comparable to the literary pronunciation of the classical Mongolian script. The paper provides a critical edition and a comparison of the Cyrillic manuscript, two xylograph versions and two manuscript versions in the Mongolian and Clear scripts. |
