Hi all,

I don't suppose this is a "chinese"-related topic but i think it may get more attention here (this topic is also posted under "linguistics")

also what do i need to view manchu letters on the web? where do i download the font? i've found this nice page but i can't see the letters... (i'm using Win 9... See more

also, anyone could recommend me some books? perhaps if they are available through amazon.com? Links for mongolian resources (if in mongolian alphabets) are also welcomed.

thankx all,

Dr Nicola di Cosmo at Harvard is a Manchu expert who teaches the language. If you search on his name, or courses, you might come up with something - a booklist perhaps.
