=== Buryat === The Buryat (буряад) Cyrillic script is similar to the Khalkha above, but Ьь indicates palatalization as in Russian. Buryat does not use Вв, Кк, Пп, Фф, Цц, Чч, Щщ or Ъъ in its native words (Пп may occur in native onomatopoeic words).
Е е = /jɛ/, /jœ/ Ё ё = /jo/ Ж ж = /dʒ/ Й й = the second element of closing diphthongs (ай, ой, etc.), it never indicates /j/ in native words Н н = /n-/, /-ŋ/ Өө өө = /œː/, ө does not occur in short form in literary Buryat based on the Khori dialect У у = /ʊ/ Ү ү = /u/ Һ һ = /h/ Ы ы = /ei/, /iː/ Ю ю = /ju/
=== Kalmyk === The Kalmyk (хальмг) Cyrillic script differs from Khalkha in some respects: there are additional letters (Әә, Җҗ, Ңң, Һһ), letters Ээ, Юю and Яя appear only word-initially, long vowels are written double in the first syllable (нөөрин), but single in syllables after the first. Short vowels are omitted altogether in syllables after the first syllable (хальмг = /xaʎmaɡ/). Жж and Пп are used in loanwords only (Russian, Tibetan, etc.), but Пп may occur in native onomatopoeic words.
Ә ә = /æ/ В в = /w/ Һ һ = /ɣ/ Е е = /ɛ/, /jɛ-/ Җ җ = /dʒ/ Ң ң = /ŋ/ Ө ө = /ø/ У у = /ʊ/ Ү ү = /u/
