Yawar is a Turkish word that means personal companion. It is also an Ottoman military rank and means the head of the prince’s guard. He has a specific mission, which is to carry the sword in front of the guests of state and walk in front of them, reviewing the guard of honor. It was used in Egypt during the days of the Ottomans. In French it is called aide de camp.
