WHat is the Mongolian word for charcoal?

[MikeChongbro]

My Mongolian cousin is struggling to send the word for charcoal. His broken English is getting better. I hope he passes TOEFL this year. Charcoal, very easy to understand why this word would be useful to know while traveling to Mongolia. I send him wikipedia link to help him know what substance I am trying to get a trans for.

Did you try to send him a picture?

Hi Mike
How do you want the word shown? In the Latin alphabet?
NeKresoa
negüresün
Or Cyrillic? Or transliterated into vertical script?
Are they really using charcoal much in Mongolia?
I would have thought they used peat?
Cheers

Oh wow Soljberg!
Oh no, not necessary for you to transliterate vertical script, naw. The translation I got from my Mongolian cousion is Xar nuurs for charcoal.
I heard about some boys from Mongolia that they still forge metals steel silver copper etc using traditional techniques. I am interested in witnessing the boys and their method.
Cyrillic is fine. Do you use a separate computer application to transliterate? If so which one and where can i get it?
