Effects on the Linguistic Structure of the Middle Mongolian caused by Foreign Elements

蒙古族佛教作品中含有大量的外来成分，包括梵语、藏语和回鹘语等，反映了元代佛教作品首次被翻译成蒙古语时的社会语言状况。这些因素在一定程度上改变了蒙古语的语言结构。在这三年里。我试图揭示这些元素的真实的方面，主要是通过阅读充分详细的佛教作品的台词，应该是在那个时代被翻译的。三部作品是重点;即Ratna-guna-samcaya-gatha、Ratna-jali和Go-srnga-vyakarana。这三个词中既有许多外来因素，又有许多令人费解的误译，这告诉我们这部作品的编纂过程。《日本文学》发表了一篇关于第一篇的文章，这篇文章是对蒙古文字学的一般性介绍。2002<th>年5月在卡尔梅克自治共和国埃利斯塔举行的纪念阿尤卡·甘诞辰360周年国际学术会议上宣读了一篇讨论第二个问题的论文。2002年在京都大谷大学举行的蒙古族印刷文化国际研讨会上宣读了一篇关于第三种印刷方式的论文。

Mongolian Buddhist works contain many foreign elements including the ones from Sanskrit, Tibetan or Uighur, which reflexes the socio-linguistic aspects of the Yuan-period when the works were firstly translated into Mongolian. These elements are supposed to change the linguistic structure of Mongolian to some extent. In these three years. I tried to disclose the real aspects of those elements, mainly through reading in full detail the lines of Buddhist works supposed to have been translated at that era. Three works are in focus ; namely, Ratna-guna-samcaya-gatha, Ratna-jali and Go-srnga-vyakarana. These three have on their lines many foreign elements as well as many puzzling mistranslations, which tell us compiling process of this work. An article about the first one, which is introductory remarks on the Mongolian philology in general, was published in Japanese Literature. A paper discussing the second one was read at International Academic Meeting held in commemoration of the 360^<th> Birthday of Ayuka Qan in Elista, Kalmyk Autonomous Republic in May, 2002. Also a paper about the third one was read at the International Symposium of Mongolian Printing Culture held at Otani University, Kyoto, in 2002.
