Question 4: Customs of the Mongolians 1 Clothing Mongolian men and women are dressed in similar styles, all wear robes, robes right lapel, not open right, long and narrow sleeves, high collar, robe cuffs, collar, robe edge are sewn with pictures. Because of the different seasons, the robe material is not the same, when the weather is warm, the princes and nobles like to use silk and satin and other fine clothing sewing robes, the poor people are wearing coarse cloth sewing robes; cold season with sheepskin production robes, but also wool, camel's wool production of cotton robes. In addition, the men also wear bare leather pants. The sophisticated men wear their robes with a belt, and they wear a chic Mongolian knife on the right side of the belt, and a tobacco purse and a lighter on the left side of the belt, which makes them look healthy and brave. Mongolian women's robes are mostly in bright colors such as red, green and blue. The collar, cuffs, lapel and hem of the robe are embroidered. Weilat Mongolia married women do not girdle, therefore, called married women are not girdle open, that is, not girdle people, they wear robes have Terlik, its style is the front of the robe has a lapel, the waist around the folds; there is also a kind of zhegdeg, its style is the front of the slit, sleeveless, like the same as a long khanshou. Mongolian women love to decorate, like to stay long braids, girls when combing two, and some comb a dozen, all like to braid their hair with satin silk made of long spikes, there are also attached to the gold ring, silver ring, copper, jasper, coral hanging. Rich people are very concerned about jewelry, wearing jewelry, earrings and bracelets made of gold and silver, rings, necklaces. 2 Diet Mongolian traditional food is divided into three kinds, the first is meat products (red food), the second is dairy products (white food), and the third is milk-based drinks. Mongolian people's diet is well organized and the diet is divided into two seasons, summer and winter. Summer is from April to October and the main food is dairy products. During this period, meat is eaten relatively less. The main reason for this is that meat is needed in the winter to add fat and to fight the cold. After a few months of accumulation, in the summer it needs to be digested and absorbed with dairy products, which is very good for health. Mongolian children Dan ate dairy products when they were small, but it was forbidden to eat too much meat, otherwise it was not good for their health. Therefore, in ancient times, few Mongolians had liver, gallbladder and gastrointestinal diseases. Mongolians have known how to eat scientifically and how to take care of themselves for a long time. There is a proverb in Mongolia: breakfast should be eaten alone, lunch should be shared with friends, and dinner should be given to the enemy. Its meaning is similar to China's "eat enough for breakfast, eat well for lunch, and eat less for dinner". The unique dietary culture has created the Mongolian people's strong physique. In recent years, with the change of society, the Mongolian diet structure, eating utensils and eating pattern have been changed by the western influence. The pastoral areas, which are y influenced by the traditional food culture, still preserve some old food culture, but probably due to the influence of the Soviet Union and the West, Mongolian food and western food are now the new food pattern. In the cities, on the other hand, people's eating patterns are completely westernized. In Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia, there are many big hotels and small restaurants, whose dining environment, eating utensils and serving procedures are completely based on European standards. The dining environment is elaborate and the tableware is all knives, forks and plates. Although the small restaurant has milk tea, doing the Mongolian food, but the structure of the Mongolian food, patterns and tableware and Western food is no different. Ordinary people's homes are the same, in addition to the table often appear salad, soup, set meal, there are bread, cream, butter, jam and other preparations

Question 6: Mongolia's living habits In the long-term practice of production and life, the Mongolian people have formed their own unique habits and way of life. The yurt is the traditional housing of the Mongolian people, which is characterized by its ease of installation and relocation. A yurt can be transported by only two camels and one oxcart, and it can be built in two or three hours. Yurts use a large area, the air can circulate well, good lighting, warm in winter and cool in summer, wind and rain, is very suitable for herdsmen's life.

Mongolian people love to drink tea, especially milk tea made from brick tea. In addition, horse milk wine is also one of the traditional Mongolian beverages.
Taboos of hospitality
It is a pleasure to have friends come from afar, isn't it? China has been a country of etiquette since ancient times, and hospitality is common among all people, especially the Mongolians. When you come to visit a Mongolian yurt, you will not only be warmly welcomed by the host, but also feel some national culture that you have never touched before. Of course, before entering the life of Mongolians, it is necessary to understand some of their customs and taboos, otherwise, if you go according to their own ideas to act arbitrarily, not only will make a joke, but also will make Mongolian compatriots unhappy.
First of all, to the Mongolian home guests taboo into the house when the lapel tucked in the belt, rolled up the sleeves, and may not be hand-held horse whip into the house. The first thing you need to do is to let the elders and the old people enter the house first, regardless of whether they are the guests or the hosts.
After entering the house, it is taboo to sit in a messy position. The guest is a guest, the master generally want to let the guest sit on the upper side, and the guest asked the old man to sit first. In the yurt, it is always the elders who sit on the front side, the men do the west side and the women do the east side.
It is taboo to lose your temper with your children when you have guests present, and you can't scold them. The elders and the elderly speech taboo interruptions, reveal the shortcomings. If you have any questions or need to clarify the situation, wait until the person has finished speaking before asking.
If you come to the Mongolian yurt as a guest, the host will immediately offer a bowl of steaming milk tea, and then served up fried rice and a big bowl of a big bowl of cream, milk tofu and milk skin and other dairy products, when the host asked you to taste, do not refuse, or else you will have to hurt the host's heart, make the host feel sorry. Mongolians are not afraid of not others to eat more, the more edible, the more happy the host. After accepting the master's tea and rice, it is taboo not to eat a little; it is taboo to use chopsticks to consume milk food and stand to drink milk and eat milk food; it is taboo to casually spread down ***; when encountering other people walking through the end of the milk, you can not turn a blind eye, you must taste it before you go.

The above quoted a netizen answer
Question 7: Tell us about the daily life of Mongolian herders The daily food of the grassland herders is mainly divided into three categories: milk, meat and grain. The traditional grazing method of Mongolian herders is nomadic, and the herders live a nomadic life by water and grass. The round yurt is the mobile home of Mongolian herders. It is a kind of round tent with wooden poles as the support and woolen felt outside. The Inner Mongolian steppe is very cold in winter, and the woolen felt is used to protect the tent from the harsh winds. The vast, flat grasslands provide space for the horse to roam to its heart's content. The rich grass is the horse's food. Mongolian people grew up with horses and their traditional means of transportation is the horse. Half of the herders' lives are spent on horseback and half in yurts. Therefore, the Mongolian people are called "the people riding on horseback". Mongolian herdsmen wearing long and fat Mongolian robe, foot Mongolian boots, wide Mongolian robe to block the powerful sand and can protect the knees against the cold, but also can be used as a quilt cover, it is really "a multi-purpose" ah! The first time I've seen this is when I've had a chance to see the world, and I've never been able to see it. .04
Question 8: What are the Mongolian taboos? Ethnic taboos: fire taboo: Mongolians worship fire, fire God and God of the stove, that fire, fire God or God of the stove is to drive away demons and evil spirits of the holy things. So after entering the yurt, it is forbidden to bake your feet on the fireplace, and even more so, you are not allowed to bake wet boots and shoes next to the fireplace; you are not allowed to cross the stove, or stir the stove; you are not allowed to knock the tobacco bag on the stove, wrestle with things, and throw dirt; you can't pick the fire with a knife, insert a knife into the fire, or use a knife to take the meat from the pot. Water taboos: Mongolians believe that it is the deity of purity. It is taboo to wash hands or bathe in the river, not to mention washing women's dirty clothes, or put unclean things into the river. Mongolian people grazing by water and grass, no water can not survive. So the herdsmen regard water as the source of life, used to save water, pay attention to keep the water clean. Stomping on the threshold: It is forbidden to step on the threshold when you come to the herdsmen's house to be a guest and go in and out of the yurt. In ancient times, if someone mistakenly stepped on the threshold of the Mongolian Khan's tent, he was executed. This taboo custom, has continued to the present. Avoid touching the head: Mongolian speech taboo on students touching the child's head with their hands. Mongolians believe that the stranger's hand is not clean, if you touch the child's head, it will affect the child's health and development. Guest taboo: herders are hospitable, but taboo is also more. Guests into the yurt, pay attention to the whole outfit, do not roll up the sleeves, the lapel tucked in the belt. Can not carry a horse whip into, to put the whip on the right side of the yurt door, and to stand and put. After entering the yurt, avoid sitting in front of the Buddha's niche, otherwise the host will treat the guests coldly and think that the guests do not know the etiquette and do not respect the national customs. Toasting tea to the herdsman's house as a guest or on the tourist spot, the host or service lady will first give the guests a bowl of milk tea. The guest should slightly bow with both hands or right hand to receive, never with the left hand, otherwise it will be considered as not knowing the etiquette. The host or service lady poured tea, guests do not want tea, to use the edge of the bowl gently put the spoon or pot spout a touch, the host will instantly understand the intention of guests. Toasting the guests with wine is the traditional way of Mongolian hospitality. They believe that wine is the essence of food, the crystallization of grains, out of the most precious food offerings, is an expression of grassland herders to the guests of respect and love. Usually the host is the wine poured in a silver bowl, gold cup or horn cup, resting on a long haida, singing a moving traditional Mongolian song of honoring the wine, the guest if it is to push and pull, pulling and pulling not to drink, will be considered to be looking down on the host, unwilling to be treated with sincerity. Guests should immediately catch the wine, after catching the wine with the ring finger dipped in wine to the sky, the earth, the direction of the fireplace point to show that the sky, the earth, the fire god. Will not drink and do not force, can Nao lips gesture, said to accept the host's pure friendship. (If all the people in front of you have to drink this bowl of wine, then you have to drink it, and the best way to do this is to offer a little more to the gods of heaven, earth and fire.) ? When visiting a herdsman's house, you should bring appropriate gifts, such as wine, grain, and small foodstuffs, and not be an empty-handed guest. For the oncoming barking shepherd dogs can be loudly scolded, but do not use things to hit, because to see a living person to come, the dog goes up and barks wildly is its nature, is to inform the owner that there is a living person to come. At this time, the owner will come out to shout at the dog and ask the guests to enter the yurt. If you need to relieve yourself, you should go to a place farther south of the yurt, not on the east or west side of the yurt (there is a sheep pen) or the north side (the odor will be blown into the yurt with the wind). When you leave your host's house, you should say goodbye and thank you.? The important traditional festivals of the Mongolian summer people are "Little New Year" and "Big New Year", and in the Little New Year, the whole family eats the reunion dinner and drinks the reunion wine together; and in the evening, the whole family prays to the God of Fire by sending the God of Fire to the flames. Han Chinese Spring Festival, the Mongolian called "Dainian", before the slaughter of cows and sheep, do new clothes, ready for fine food, the night of the 30th, the family sat around a table full of meat, milk, wine "to keep watch", the first day of the year to fifteen, have straddled the steed, take the hatha and wine to friends and relatives. From the first day to the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, they mounted their horses, brought their khaddar and wine to pay homage to their friends and relatives, and those who paid homage to them often brought a small bag of tea with them, which meant that they were "bringing happiness home". Mongolian songs are divided into two kinds of long and short tunes, no matter high and loud, or whispering and echoing, all of them show the simple, bright, enthusiastic and bold character of the Mongolian nationality, Mongolian dances have a long history of fame, there are the traditional saber dance, Ordos dance, chopstick dance, cup and bowl dance, etc. The rhythm is bright and fast, and the dance is light and quick, and it artistically expresses the simplicity, warmth and boldness of the Mongolian laboring people, and the horse-head qin is the favorite national musical instrument of Mongolian people, because it is played on the pole of the qin, which is the best instrument in Mongolia. Horse-head qin is a favorite ethnic instrument of the Mongolian people, because the upper end of the piano pole decorated with a horse's head, so it is called "horse-head qin", the players are mostly solo, or self-singing, low tone, melodious and melodious.

Question 10: What did the ancient Mongols like to eat 1, the most remarkable thing about the Mongols is that they ate everything, and it can be said that they found what to eat.
2, the Mongols do not have rice, the beasts from the hunt is the only food of the Mongols, they treat food very frugal.
