Greetings!  I am looking for someone who can answer a few questions on Urdu,
the language of the Mongols.  I am a member of the Society for Creative
Anachronism where everybody pretends to be someone who might have lived in
the middle ages and researches their persona.

We have a woman in our local group who wants to be a Mongol.  She has chosen
the name Cori Ghora.  She says that "cor" means thief, "-i" is a feminine
ending, and "ghora" means horse.  She has no documentation for the name other
than a primer of the Urdu language.  We need answers to a few questions.

1.) Is Urdu the language of the Mongols?
2.) Do the words translate what she says they do?
3.) Is the grammatical construction correct?
4.) Is this the type of name Mongols would use?

Documentation, or a pointer towards it, would be greatly appreciated.  Please
send e-mail as I normally don't read this group.  adTHANKSvance.
