Mongolization is a cultural and language shift whereby populations adopt the Mongolic languages or culture. Kazakhs in Mongolia went through partial Mongolization.[1]

Historically, groups such as Ongud, Keraites, Naimans and Merkits were Mongolized Turkic groups. Tanguts, who speak the Sino-Tibetan language but later became Mongolian, can be given as an example. Khotons are Mongolic but formerly were of Turkic ethnicity.[2]
