Монгол Тодотгол | Mongolian Identity

Монгол Тодотгол | Mongolian Identity

This episode is in Mongolian.

Today’s episode is deeply personal.


As someone living abroad, I have become more aware of how certain words travel across cultures—and how they can quietly affect identity, confidence, and perception.


In this episode, I explore the history of the term “Mongoloid”—where it came from, why it was used in science and medicine, and how it became outdated, inaccurate, and harmful.


This is not just a discussion about language.
It is about identity, history, and the responsibility of correcting what no longer belongs in modern understanding.


I also reflect on how Mongolians, especially those living abroad, have experienced this word—and how awareness, education, and action are slowly changing its global use.

Down syndrome was first described in 1866 by the English physician John Langdon Down.

Its genetic cause was later identified in 1959 by the French geneticist Jérôme Lejeune.

Монгол Хэл

Өнөөдрийн энэ дугаар надад гүнзгий утгаараа маш хувийн.


Гадаад оронд амьдарч эхэлснээс хойш
зарим үг, ойлголтууд соёл хооронд хэрхэн “аялж”,
мөн тэдгээр нь хүний identity, өөртөө итгэх итгэл,
хэрхэн ойлгогдох байдалд
чимээгүйгээр хэрхэн нөлөөлдгийг авч үзэх тухай юм.


Энэ удаа “Mongoloid” гэдэг үгийн түүхийг мөн
хаанаас үүссэн,
яагаад шинжлэх ухаан болон анагаах ухаанд хэрэглэгдэж байсан,
мөн яагаад өнөөдөр хуучирсан, буруу,
зарим тохиолдолд хор хөнөөлтэй ойлголт болсон талаар ярилцах болно.


Энэ бол зөвхөн хэлний тухай яриа биш.


Энэ нь identity, түүх,
мөн орчин үеийн ойлголтод
хамаарахгүй болсон зүйлсийг
засах, зөвөөр ойлгуулах хариуцлагын тухай юм.

Down syndrome-г анх 1866 онд Английн эмч John Langdon Down тодорхойлсон.

Харин түүний генетикийн шалтгаан нь XX зууны дунд үед, 1959 онд Францын генетикч Jérôme Lejeune-аар тогтоогдсон.
