Besanerwee culture

Besanerweedhi [/Be.sa.nèr.wee.dhi/] are the people of Besanerwee [/Be.sa.nèr.wee/] the god of light in the darkness. Besanerwee first appeared to the Besanerweedhi when all the sky turned dark one day, but a sphere of light appeared in the sky, it gave the Besanerweedhi a symbol of distinguished power and of light in the darkness, and that phenomenon had felt so important to them that they made that sphere of light, their god, also known as Besanerwee.

Legend of Besanerwee
The legend has it that the land of Besanerwee was nothing but a forest, where nothing but his light could penetrate. Besanerwee lived within the skies of his land, he called it Hedezkho. But one day, he had sent a mystical being known to the besanerweedhi as Sahepa to prepare the land for their arrival. Sahepa made everything, it created huge bumps in the land where mountains would rise, in addition to that it had created what is now known as Yodu Fungu, Yodu khoyo and Yodu nerwee, and it had also made other countless resources for the besanerweedhi to exploit. After it had finished, Sahepa decided to become a Pa [/Pâ/] (cat), and till this khodea (period of time equivalent to an earth year, also written as KÃ), the besanerweedhi honor the Pa as a gift from Besanerwee.

Besanerwee's objectives are based on saving his people from the darkness and illuminate them so that they can thrive and become one day worthy of living by his side in Hedezkho. Suddenly one day, the ten dhi had appeared on the land that was crafted by Sahepa, and 30 KÃ later, Besanerwee appeared to them as a sphere of light in the sky, just after the world had went into the darkness. These dhi witnessed the first Neryo, and the besanerweedhi were born.

The origins of Besanerweebeyo and hand signals and gestures
Upon the original dhi's arrival, on the lands of Besanerwee, their tongue had gotten twisted, and they started making many sounds that they never used to make. Soon they noticed that those sounds which they were pronouncing, were the words that Besanerwee had sent for them to use to communicate. So they wrote it on ayafandhu (wooden planks) and they called it Besanerweebeyo.

As time passed on from khodea to another, the hehuladhi have mastered the hehula, but while training to achieve it, they discovered that it is best to attack their prey without being spotted, so they developed a new way of communication using only hand signals and gestures. The dhi had noticed how the hehuladhi communicated with each other, and they liked it, so they started using it as common ways to address one another without using much words. And so the hand signals have developed to what they are now known to be. Muriel Abou Imad (talk) 08:02, 7 December 2014 (EST)

The Besafan
After their achievement of writing the besanerweeneyo on ayafandhu. They decided to prepare a prayer called “besafan”. Working on it for many khodea, the ancient prayer was created.

The Besafan: Besanerwee sh Gugh Besanerwee sh pash Besanerwee dh Bekho iHe Dez, yosh Dez pasa Yodez hudh dez khosh hudhyo dez doushpa hedezkho Guyo dez Khodezyo doupa, Héfanlasa ikhosala. Labe

English translation: Besanerwee our god, Besanerwee our supporter, Besanerwee the life, Help us, give us light, Stay with us and deliver us to live with you in your hedezkho Give us Khodezyo doupa(tradional food in besanerwee's land) Don’t forget us, forgive us. '''Labe ''' Muriel Abou Imad (talk) 08:04, 7 December 2014 (EST)

Evolution of Doufan
But we also did not say that the first thing Besanerwee did when he came to the land is that he tried to draw himself. It wasn't typically the same but not bad at all. So he tried many times till he made it perfectly. He called himself Doufan (the besanerweedhi’s best painters). Then he wrote the definition of this word on ayafandhuand kept the picture there. From here people of besanerwee each neryo make an election for the best painter and then they call him doufan. Muriel Abou Imad (talk) 08:24, 7 December 2014 (EST)

Evolution of Shay
Ghaythi[/Gh.ay.th.i/] (rock climbing) started off as a game, the dhis climbed on mountains and the fastest climber was called Shay.One day a dhi discovered hela on the top of Yodezkho, from that day Ghaythi became a job for the dhis who are now known as Shay.They crossed dangerous paths such as the trail of Gubeyo, climb to the top of mountains to mine rocks, travel to the depths of Yodezkho to mine Fanheyo. To become a Shay the dhis must have an experience in Ghaythi, then they must train 3 years in the training mines of Hudoupa and learn to perform gubeyolasa. When they finish training, the dhis are taken to Yodezkho to climb only the first half of the volcano to determine their level of climbing.

There are four levels:

-The first level is Yofanbelasa (/yo.fan.be.la.sa/), it consists of polishing hela and turning it into besadou.

-The second level is doupasa (/dou.pa.sa/), it consists of collecting dropped hela and delivering it to the yofanbelasa.

-The third level is gunerlabe (/gu.ner.la.be/), it consists of climbing to the top of Yodezkho to mine hela.

-The fourth level is belawe (/be.la.we/) it consists of diving in the depths of Yodezkho and collecting fanheyo.

Once a dhi finishes all four levels he is known to be a Shayhei (/Sh.ay.he.i/).

Yopasaner
Yopasaner [/Yo.pa.sa.ner/] is an area where eversnow rules the lands. It is always cold but in Yopasa [/Yo.pa.sa/] (winter), it gets so cold that the Yopasanerdhi [/Yo.pa.sa.ner.dhi/] (people of yopasaner) do not even dare to come out unless it is for emergencies such as water or food shortage. But in Yokhosa [/Yo.kho.sa/] (summer) the Yopasanerdhi go hunting till they know they have enough ressources to last them through the next Yopasa.

Yopasaner [/Yo.pa.sa.ner/] is known to inhabit the well known shila [/shy.là/] (Bos primigenius indicus votispesianus) and shisa [/shy.sà/] (Ovis aries votispesianus) who are killed and their remains would be used as ingredients for khoyopa and their skin used to make clothes. The majority of the clothes that the dhi wear come from Yopasaner, mostly because the Yopasanerdhi are known to be  khobedhi [/kho.bé.dhi/], and since they have the most clothing materials and also have nothing else to do then kill animals and wear their skin so they don't freeze in the very cold weather.

Layopa
Layopa [/La.yo.pa/] is a common place in the lands of Besanerwee, the temperature during Yopasa and Yokhosa are very close to each other, it's either a little bit cold or mild in Layopa. But the amount of rain is very numerous, the sky is rarely clear. The Layopadhi [/La.yo.pa.dhi/] are doufan experts, they have created a very famous and simple drawing that has given Layopa a very important reputation for the dhi.

Ithkho [/I.z.kho/] (Pinus pinea votispesiana) are cut down by the Layopadhi to be made into Ayafanhu [/Aya.fan.hu/] (wooden planks) for the doufan to draw on. Layopa is rich in ghidezyo [/ĝhi.dez.yo/] (Salvia officinalis votispesianus), the layopadhi usually use it as an accessory to their body's hair.

Within the forests near Layopa, there can be found a variety of animals that can be hunted by and that can haunt the dhi. Yokhoyo [/Yo.kho.yo/] (Canis lupus lupus votispesianus) has proven itself as being a cold blooded beast who attacks using numbers and hides in the Nerwee [/Nèr.wi/] (darkness), it has attacked the dhi in the past but the Besai [/Bé.say/] (fire) has helped the dhi protect themself because the yokhoyo has a great fear of besai. The Weeéla [/Wi.yé.la/] (Cervus elaphus votispesianus) and the Yoela [/Yo.wé.la/] are both the favorable targets of the Héhuladhi [/Hé.huw.la.dhi/] because of their large bodies and that they can be found near Yodu Fungu [/Yo.dou/] [/fun.gou/].

Milad Doumani (talk) 01:44, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Yokhosaner
Yokhosaner [/Yo.kho.sa.ner/] is the closest land to the Yodu Nerwee [/Yo.dou/] [/Nèr.wi/], it is the hottests point in all of the lands of Besanerwee. during Yokhosa it can get so hot that the Yokhosanerdhi [/Yo.kho.sa.ner.dhi/] would take off all the clothes that the khobedhi had given them. In Yopasa the weather is still considered hot but not as hot as in Yokhosa, during this period of time the Yokhosanerdhi start wearing heavier clothing but still have some body parts showing. The land is only exposed to a minimum amount of rain over time, but the Yokhosanerdhi never even liked rain so the lack of it has never bothered them.

Nothing satisfies the dhi more than the amazing way the Yokhosanerdhi use khoweener [/kho.wi.nèr/] (Prunus amygdalus votispesiaus) as exterior decorations to mark their habitats. The éweener [/É.wi.nèr/] (Chenopodium quinoa votispesianus) is what the Yokhosanerdhi value for it is such a rarity to them that it only grown in their land, they use the éweener only during the marriage of two members of the dhi wherever they are in the lands of Besanerwee.

The young members of the Yokhosanerdhi have adopted the Weehuyo [/Wi.hou.yo/] (Oryctolagus cuniculus votispesianus) for it's speed and agility, it is told that when a weehuyo is found with a dhi member, children are expected to be born soon. Within Yokhosaner, the rarest animal in all the lands of Besanerwee, the besabe [/Bé.sà.bé/] (Sus domesticus votispesianus) lives with freedom but can be easily found because of the sounds it emits. Legend has it that, during a Neryo, a small number of besabe is told to emerge from Nerwee as a symbol of restoration of Besa. And at a funeral, a besabe is killed and it's body parts are thrown in Yodu Nerwee as a symbol of Besa returning to Nerwee.

Yodezkho
Yodezkho [/Yo.déz.kho/] is a non-active volcano that is the highest known point to the dhi. In Yopasa its so cold, that almost no animal or dhi can be found on it's top, and in Yokhosa its not as cold as it was in yopasa but it is still very cold. Yodezkho is under a big amount of snow precipitations the majority of the time. In the depths of Yodezkho, a lot of Fanhéyo [/Fan.hé.yo/] (emeralds) which are used to create jewellery, can be found. While on the peak there is Héla [/Hé.là/] (obsidian rocks) which are mined by the shaydhi [/Shay.dhi/] of Besanerwee during yokhosa.

One of the unique and beautiful things about Yodezkho are the multitude of Lahula [/La.hu.la/] (Allium sativum votispesianus) that are found almost at every corner you look at when in Yodezkho.

Besanerwee
Besanerwee [/Bé.sa.nèr.wi/] is where the first Neryo took place, the dhi living within the land called Besanerwee are know for the unique Besadoudhé [/Bé.sa.dou.dhé/] which is a house where all the wall are made of polished obsidian. In the Besadouhé, besa penetrates from the open ceiling and whenever a dhi penetrates the besadoudhé, their image appears on the walls, but that phenomenon does not happen at night because, according to the besanerweedhi, at night, Nerwee penetrates the besadoudhé so that he can fight Besa, but when the Besa wins, the morning rises and all of the lands od Besanerwee shines. In Besanerwee it is almost the same temperature during Yopasa and Yokhosa, it's either a little bit cold or mild in Besanerwee. Rain has a tendency to appear quite frequently but it never lasts more than half a day.

There are a variety of plant decorations that the besanerweedhi use, including the lath [/La.ž/] (Daucus carota votispesiana) and the weesa [/Wi.sà/] (Eruca sativa votispesiana). After waking up, the Dhifansapa [/Dhi.fan.sà.pà/] go to the nearest Yoisa [/Yo.wi.sa/] (Juglans regia votispesiana), which are numerous in Besanerwee, and meditate, supposedly letting Besa enter their body so they will be worthy of being near Besanerwee in Hedezkho. One of the main product that Besanerwee makes is ghihela [/ĝhi.hé.la/] (bread) made thanks to the gukhoner [/Gu.kho.nèr/] and it was possible because of the abbundance of ghihesa [/ĝhi.hé.sa/] (Triticum votispesianus). One of the many dangerous animals on the lands of Besanerwee is found right in Besanerwee, that animal is called by the dhi as dezépa [/Dèz.é.pa/] (Puma concolor votispesianus). Dezépa is known for hunting sabeihu [/Sa.bé.yi.hou/] (Bos primigenius namadicus votispesianus) which is also a violent animal but not as brutal and as fast as the dezepa, and both beasts are hard for the Héhuladhi to defeat, but when one is actually killed, the killer gets immense respect and brings honor to his/her name. On the peaceful side of things, there is a special bird in besanerwee know to the dhi as fanneryo [/fa.ñer.yo/] (Columba livia votispesiana), which travels all over the lands of Besanerwee, but the besanerweedhi have claimed that animal as theirs because the amount of fanneryo found in besanerwee is far greater than any of place in the lands of Besanerwee.

Hudoupa
Hudoupa [/Hou.dou.pâ/] has a cold climate most of the time. In Yopasa it is very cold and sometimes snow falls on it's land, while during Yokhosa it can get to an average climate where it's not too hot and not too cold, just average.

Hudoupa is located at the very beginning of the trail of Gubeyo [/Gu.be.yo/] (death), which is the trail made by the shaydhi to climb to the top of Yodezkho, and which also is so dangerous to attempt, that it has been the cause of the most deaths known to the dhi. Hudoupa is also the main camp of the shaydhi. On the first day of Yopasa, all of the shaydhi begin climbimg the trail of gubeyo to reach the top of Yodezkho. If a member of the shaydhi dies on the trail, in his memory, one of his friends takes a stick and plant it in the very spot of the fallen member's death. Then they decapitate him and put his head on the stick. After that, they burry his equipment next to him and raise their hands in his favor. This ritual is called gubeyolasa [/Gu.be.yo.la.sa/]. The shaydhi perform this ritual so that the fallen shaydhi’s soul will go to Hedezkho.

While living in Hudoupa, the Hudoupadhi [/Hou.dou.pâ.dhi/] got used to smelling the fresh smell of ishibe [/I.shi.bé/] (Rosmarinus officinalis votispesianus), mostly because almost all the Hudoupadhi wipe therselfs with it to get it's attractive scent on them. What makes Hudoupa a special place is definitely the unique presence of one of the most cherished animals on the lands of Besanerwee, the pa [/pâ/] (Felis catus votispesianus) which is the animal Sahépa appeared in, and which is drawn in many doufan ayafanhu.

Iyodu
Iyodu [/I.yo.dou/] is a very average place compared to the other lands of besanerwee, it always has a temperate climate in yopasa and yokhosa, it has moist soil due to Yodu khoyo [/Yo.dou/] [/Kho.yo/] being very close to it, and rain is constant during yopasa but disappears during yokhosa. This is why Iyodu is known to be the most peaceful of all the lands in Besanerwee, the Iyodudhi [/I.yo.dou.dhi/] are also reflective of their environment, they are calm and very simple looking. The Iyodudhi are born peacekeepers, so the majority of them choose to be Douguladhi [/Dou.gou.la.dhi/].

One of the greatest things about Iyodu is the hékhoi [/Hé.kho.yi/] (Asparagus officinalis votispesianus), for it's uncomparrable sweetness and taste. Near the grounds of iyodu, the beautifully feathered Fansa [/Fan.sa/] (Meleagris gallopavo votispesianus) can be found. Usually the iyodudhi watch them as they walk peacefully, but at the first chance possible, the iyodudhi grab a feather from it's tail and attaches it to the lower part of his/her body, to indicate beauty and patience.

Hand Signals and gestures
Though language is the main means of communication in the Besanerwee culture, hand signals and gestures are also a very helpful way to communicate. Hand signals and gestures vary (meaning wise) and can be used alongside speaking in Besanerweebeyo. The most popular hand signals are:

The Besanerweedhi also have many gestures and a body language that they use to communicate. The most popular gestures include:

Good Luck Charms
There is many good luck charms, the most popular are:
 * 1) always have cat food on you.
 * 2) If you see a cat shaped constellation in the stars, it is a very good sign.
 * 3) If a cat jumps on your food, you will be rich very soon.--Anthony Saab (talk) 07:59, 31 December 2014 (EST)

Bad Luck Charms
Three of the most catastrophic bad charms are: --Anthony Saab (talk) 07:59, 31 December 2014 (EST)
 * 1) If you see a pa spitting anything in front of you, you will be dead soon.
 * 2) If you catch a pa in your grand-parents' house, you are going to lose all your goods in the future.
 * 3) If you see your children stepping on the tail of a pa, they will die young.

Besanerweebeyo
The Besanerweedhi speak in Besanerweebeyo (the official language of Besanerwee).

The Aybe (The letters of the besanerweebeyo) are:

The Bebe (The syllables of the besanerweebeyo) are:







Milad Doumani (talk) 01:38, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Commenly used phrases
To greet someone using the besanerweebeyo, one would say: Yo.

To end conversation, one would say: Hu.

In a conversation, if one wouldn't say Huth Nerwee which means away with darkness and ignorance, the whole conversation would be considered a lie.

If one would say Yodez Besa Yodez which means  You are truly enlightened, the person would be considered either proposing or giving godly honor to another.

Milad Doumani (talk) 01:38, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Legends and common beliefs
The Besanerweedhi believe in many superstitions and legends. There is, for example, a legend that says that once every 10 KÃ, Sahepa will appear and will visit the dhi under her usual form (the one of a pa), when all of the dhi shall bow down to her and pray the Besafan to Besanerwee, thanking him for his gift to them. As any usual pa, Sahepa approaches the dhi and sniffs every single one of them. If she rubs herself against one of them, that person is the chosen one and will have good luck until her next appearance. But if one of the dhi does not bow down to her and pray to Besanerwee, that person will be cursed and will live a miserable life until her next appearance.

--John Sakr (talk) 13:12, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Talents
The Besanerweedhi are talented people, so in their lives they managed to discover how to use them efficiently, and who could use them better than the others.

Shay
The Besanerweedhi are natural climbers, the young ones would climb trees and would have races to see who the fastest climber was, that person would be called shay [/Shay/]. Shaydhi [/Shay.dhi/] are known to be the expert climbers that go to collect obsidian rocks from the top of Yodezkho [/Yo.déz.kho/] (the non-active volcano) that will be used to make besadou [/Bé.sa.dou/] (polished obsidian).

Milad Doumani (talk) 01:45, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Doufan
Doufandhi [/Dou.fân.dhi/] are the besanerweedhi’s best painters, they have been given the talent of doufan [/Dou.fân/] (painting), to show the dhi the image of Besanerwee using simple colors and shapes. They also tend to create pictures of Sahépa [/Sá.hé.pâ/] with Besanerwee.

Milad Doumani (talk) 01:45, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Héhula
Héhula [/Hé.hou.la/] is what a select group of dhi train to achieve. Hélula is what was given to the dhi by Sahepa, it is what gives the dhi incredible strength and courage, and the people who achive the Héhula, are called Héhuladhi [/Hé.hou.la.dhi/]. They spend the majority of their time hunting down animals so that the dhi can eat, furthermore the héhuladhi also protect the dhi from the wild and dangerous animals that are a threat to their lives. The héhula skill can be found in all corners whithin the lands of Besanerwee

Milad Doumani (talk) 01:45, 7 January 2015 (EST)

Interests
Some dhi in Besanerwee have found their lives stable so they have went and started inventing numerous creations to make their lives easier, though some dhi were better than others at certain categories of items, they all had one perpous, which is to improve their lifestyle.

Khobe
The Besanerweedhidhi wear some of the most comfortable clothes in all of the lands, they can keep warm during harsh Yopasa or cool during hot Yokhosa, that is all thanks to the khobedhi [/kho.bé.dhi/]. The khobedhi are the dhi that are interested in khobe [/kho.bé/] which is the art of cloth making. They usually use shila [/shy.là/] and shisa [/shy.sà/] skin, and most of them live in Yopasaner.

Khodezyo doupa (Culinary Arts)
Khodezyo doupa [/kho.dez.yo/] [/dou.pa/] (the culinary cuisine) in Besanerwee is one of it's kind.

Salahé
Salahé [/sa.la.hé/] (Made of lapagu (poultry), héfan (vegetables),and dezwee (starchy foods), Salahé a traditional mid-day Besanerweean dish. It consists of these elements: being assembled together on a dish after grilling the thédou and the hudhyo, and having fansa (Origanum vulgare votispesianus ), Héi (Citrus × limon votispesianus), and weegu (sodium chloride from the salty waters of Yodu Nerwee) added to them.
 * Thédou [/th/é/dou/] (galus galus votispesianus)
 * Hudhyo [/hu/dh/yo/] (Solanum tuberosum votispesianus)
 * yopabe [/yo/pa/be/] (spinacia oleracea votispesianus)
 * laheghi [/la/he/ghi/](Chenopodium quinoa votispesianus)
 * padoush [/pa/dou/sh/] (Corylus votispesianus)

Khoyopa
Despite Salahé already making the Besanerweedhi proud of their culture, they also invented the Khoyopa[/kho.yo.pa/] khofani [/kho/fan/i/](khofani=salad) The Khoyopa khofani is made of: being mixed together and having Shifanhé [/sh.i.fan.hé/] (allium sativum votespesianus)and Héi (Citrus × limon votispesianus) being added to them (after being mixed, smashed, and juiced).
 * Ghidezyo [/gh.i.dez.yo/] (cucumis sativus votispesianus)
 * Huyowee [/hu.yo.wee/] (Prunus amygdalus votispesianus)
 * Lapagu [/la.pa.gu/] (asparagus officinalis votispesianus)

Dousalawee
Dousalawee is a sweet snack the Besanerweedhi created to eat after Salahé. Making it is very simple: Pouring Douthé[/Dou.th.é/] (Theobroma cacao votispesianus)after being melted and cooled on Pagula[/pa.gu.la/] (Pistacia vera votispesianus)is all that it takes.
