Fun Fact of the Day!

I'm starting to learn Cyrillic, the Russian alphabet, so I'll be able to read road signs and start to learn the language. Today I learned that Mongolian uses the Cyrillic alphabet too, as do a bunch of other eastern European and central Asian languages.

Check out this road sign in Mongolia. Now imagine it marking the loosest possible definition of a road. heck yes.

I am learning Cyrillic too! But for me, it's just for fun. I get really confused because it's so different printed than handwritten.
