Alphabet
Until 1932, Tongol had no alphabet: Chinese characters are used, representing a word. However, in 1800, there are attempts at writing religious texts in it using the Latin alphabet.

In 1932, a Latin alphabet was introduced. The former Latin alphabet was:

A,B,C,D,E,Ë,F,G,H,H̨,I,Ï,J,K,L,L̨,M,N,N̨,O,Ö,P,R,S,S̨, S ,T,T̨,U,V,Z,Ь

In 1938, the use of Tongol Latin alphabet was suppressed in favour of katakana. In 1945, Tongol now uses Cyrillic script.

The letters in red only appear in Russian loanwords.

The letter Ъ indicates vowel nasalisation, and Ь represents the consonant /j/ (unlike in Russian).

Grammar
Tongol is a SVO language like other Looneylandian languages.
