According to the Buriat Wikipedia article about (Russian) Buriatia, "flag" in Buriat language is "туг" (in cyrillic letters). Is the same word used also in the Chinese side of the border? If not, which word is it? Either way: which romanization/bopomofo spellings are used/usable? (As for the actual spelling, I guess that it is used the same ideograph as in Chinese, Japanese etc.)
