Every student of English has been challenged by the difference between English and Mongolian tense and aspect categories. To begin with, in English there are four major aspect groups (Simple, Progressive, Perfect, Perfect Progressive), showing how the action is performed, multiplied by four time indicators (Present, Past, Future, Future in the Past.) In Mongolian there are three time indicators, called tenses (Present, Past, Future), Therefore, English and Mongolian forms are not parallel, though some regularities might be observed between them. In this presentation, I will discuss meaning of some special words, suffixes, tense aspects and moods of Mongolian language, their possible translation way into English, analyzing case studies of translation and giving some examples of translation.
