The Todo script monuments are one of the various monuments written in the Mongolian language and script. Among the major monuments of Todo script, the texts translated by Zaya pandita Namkhaijamts hold a remarkable position. The monuments of those translations have been handed down in a small number of Uyghur-Mongolian script, mostly in Todo script. Contains a rich vocabulary of the native Mongolian language from the 17th century and earlier. Zaya pandita Namkhaijamts’s translated literary monuments contains numerous old words that aren’t frequently used in the modern Mongolian language, both orally and in writing and have been transferred to the passive (archaic) vocabulary. Those words are considered in two parts: ancient words and obsolete words, and as an example, the meanings of some words are clarified with similar words in the active use of the modern Mongolian language.
