General names

This list should be regarded as being 'in beta'. Information is based on dictionaries and other sources. Pronunciation still needs fine-tuning. Comments and corrections welcome.

The flamingos were originally known in Mongolian as Нал дэглий nal deglii 'ruby heron'. The form Нил дэглий nil deglii appears to also exist.

The 2007 bird list uses the word 'ruby' as the name of the bird, Ягаан нал yagaan nal 'pink ruby', as the name дэглий deglii is reserved for the genus Ardea.
