Abstract
In this article, the author analyzes the acoustic-phonetic features of the consonants /b/, /d/, and /g/ of the Khalkha dialect, which is the standard dialect of the Mongolian Literary Language. On this basis, the author explains as follows: The phoneme /b/ is pronounced as the voiceless bilabial plosive [p] (as in stop [paɬ] ‘pen’) in any word position. The phoneme /d/is pronounced as the voiceless dental plosive [t] (as in stop [tawaː] ‘mountain pass’) in any word position. The voiceless velar plosive [k] (as in stop [kerəɬ] ‘light’) and the voiceless uvular plosive [q] (as in stop [qaɬoː] ‘бал’) are allophones for the phoneme /g/ as the initial consonant of a word or after [ŋ] at the beginning of noninitial syllables.
