Abstract

Abstract The Mongolic languages have a rich terminology related to horse tack. The tack includes the bridle, horse’s bit, halter, lead rope, reins, saddle, horse blanket, stirrup, various straps and girths. They all have special names in Mongolic. The aim of this paper is to collect these specific terms from the Mongolic languages and discuss them from a morphological and etymological perspective. The latter is important because the vocabulary of animal husbandry in Mongolic was strongly influenced linguistically by the Turkic people.
