The famous dictionary Muqaddimat al-adab was compiled in the 12^th century as an arabian-persian-turkic triglossa by an arabian scholar al-Zamahshari. Approximately in the 14^th century mongolian part was attached to this manuscript.

This mongolian part was thoroughly investigated by N.Poppe who published in 1938 the book named 'Mongol`skij slovar` Mukaddimat al-adab'. It contains mongolian and turkic lexicon and the description of the mongolian language used in the dictionary.

Mukaddimat al-adab unlike other monuments in Western Middle Mongolian dialect contains not only single words but enourmous number of sentences and this is of a special value for the mongolian studies.

Here is the first edition by Poppe:
