This chapter introduces the concepts such as nomadic knowledging and nomadic languaging through ethnographic encounters with Mongolian nomadic herdsmen. Centred on the practice of the nomadic reminiscing circle, it explores how nomadic communities integrate additional languages such as English within their land-based epistemologies, while safeguarding cultural and linguistic boundaries. These practices embody both fluidity and rootedness, playfulness, and precarity, reflecting the adaptability and resilience of nomadic life. By examining how English is accepted only when mediated by humility and respect, the chapter highlights the relational ethics underlying nomadic engagements with language. It argues that applied linguistics must learn from nomadic perspectives, which emphasise mobility, contextual responsiveness, and land-connected ways of knowing, thereby offering new pathways for rethinking language in global and local contexts.
