>that contradicts the info in URL I gave, which says the Mongolians dislike the name "ger"
Yurt is the name commonly used to refer to a Mongolian Felt Tent or Ger. Mongolians do not usually appreciate the term because it is most often used by Western invaders. So, in spite of this page's title, we will attempt to use Ger where ever possible.
I read this to mean that they didn't like the word 'yurt'!
