By the way, there are exists many line styles in mongolian.

@siqinbilige that's a very handy example! Do you have a slightly larger version that i could add to the type-samples repository? (if so, please send me via email)

I believe all of those styles are covered by the CSS3 spec.

However, i'd be very interested to know what is the meaning/purpose for each of those different styles. Could you explain that for me?

There is a large version of the picture.
Those different styles for analysis sentence patterns.
For example, subject , verb, ... etc.
In normally, there are five patterns in mongolian sentence.

thanks @siqinbilige. I believe that CSS can do all of these styles except the one that combines the straight and wavy lines. That raises a couple of questions for me: Is that very common (in Mongolian and/or in Chinese)? If the mongolian text is set horizontally, does the wavy line appear above or below the straight line?

Yes, that is quite common in Mongolian, Chinese, and Japanese, I think. For that purpose, Microsoft Office Word was fully prepared under line styles and colors in Japanese and Chinese version. We hope have a color option in under line, too.
In normally (Monglian thinking), if the mongolian text is set horizontally, the wavy line appear above (Counter-clockwise 90 deg).
