意味
One's relatives and household.
文化的背景
The 'Ger' is the center of the universe. The family's position inside the Ger is strictly dictated by tradition: the father/eldest at the north, women on the east, and guests on the west. This is the most important family holiday. It is a time when the 'Гэр бүл' expands to include all relatives to perform the 'Zolgolt' greeting. Mongolians traditionally didn't have surnames. They used their father's name as a possessive (e.g., Bat's Bold). This emphasizes the direct link within the 'Гэр бүл.' A Mongolian 'Гэр бүл' is expected to be hospitable to any traveler. To refuse entry to a 'Ger' is considered a great shame for the family.
Use 'Манай'
When talking about your family, use 'Манай гэр бүл' (Our family) instead of 'Миний гэр бүл' (My family). It sounds more natural and humble in Mongolian culture.
Spelling of 'Бүл'
Be careful not to write 'бол' (to be/if) or 'бул' (muscle/source). The 'ү' is crucial for the meaning 'group.'

The 'Am' Trick
If you are at a restaurant and the waiter asks how many people, always use 'Ам бүл [number]' or just '[Number]-уулаа.' It makes you sound like a pro.
Asking about family
It is never considered intrusive to ask about someone's family in Mongolia; in fact, it is considered polite and shows you care about the person's foundation.
