خلفية ثقافية
When visiting a nomadic family, they will often offer 'Их цай' (much tea) and 'Их идээ' (much food). Declining 'too much' can be tricky; it's better to accept a little than to say you've had 'их' already. The term 'Их' was used to denote the highest level of authority. 'Их Засаг' was the legal code of the Mongol Empire, emphasizing that these were the 'Great Laws' above all others. While 'Их' is used for praise, some elders believe that saying a child is 'их ухаантай' (very smart) too often might attract negative spirits. They might use more modest language instead. Many geographical landmarks use 'Их'. 'Их Тэнгэр' (Great Sky) is a sacred mountain and also the name of the President's residence area in Ulaanbaatar.
The 'Thank You' Rule
Always use 'Их баярлалаа' instead of just 'Баярлалаа' to sound more polite and natural to native speakers.
Word Order
Never put 'Их' after the noun. It's always 'Их ажил', never 'Ажил их' (unless it's a specific poetic sentence structure).
