  • Medial and final forms may be distinguished from those of other tooth-shaped letters through: vowel harmony (a) and its effect on the shape of a word's consonants (q/k and γ/g), or position in syllable sequence (n, ng, d).[12]
  • The final tail extends to the left after bow-shaped consonants (such as b, p, k, and g), and to the right in all other cases.
  • ᠡ᠋‍ = a traditional initial form.[13]: 6 
  • Derived from Old Uyghur aleph (𐽰).[3]: 539–540, 545–546 [14]: 111, 113 [15]: 35

  • In the Mongolian Unicode block, e comes after a and before i.
