Monguor language is said to have a singular suffix -ngge (-ge). Close examination shows, however, that this suffix is added not only to nouns but also to pronouns, proper nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, postpositions and so on in various meanings. It is sometimes added even to plural nouns. The occurrence of -ngge added to nouns is low in verse than in prose. This paper aims to show that one of the main functions of this suffix is to mark the noun in its first appearance. In some texts where many new nous appear in sequence, there is a tendency that only determined nouns have this sufix. When speaker, topic and theme changes, or when speaker reaffirm the noun which has already appeared in the previous discource, -ngge is added to the noun. In some texts, -ngge is added to the same word repeatedly. The usage of -ngge may vary from story-teller to story-teller in the tale of same motif.
