Well بكر is disputedly of Arabic origin. And yes, ديار is originally Arabic, but the fact of the matter is that the phrase travelled from

Cihanda Sulh

Would you be able to render Cihanda Sulh for me using the Ottoman Turkish alphabet? A friend of mine recently moved into a flat, in a building with the name Cihan Apartmanı, and I'd like to give him a calligraphic rendering of Cihanda Sulh to hang on the (still bare) walls. I think Cihan is جهان, but is Cihanda Sulh then جهاﻨﺪ صلح? Although not as embarassing as for a tattoo, it would be painful to go through the effort of creating nice calligraphy, only to find out the slogan contains a spelling error.  --Lambiam 21:45, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Commas

If the division of the tone the picture below intends to show is the division of the tone into nine

Holdrian commas (resp. an approximate division into nine Pythagorean commas
)

then there are three mistakes in the picture as far as the use of the Western flat and sharp symbols are concerned.

Indeed contrary to what the picture shows the D ("Ré bémol") is not equal to C ("Do dièze") but is one comma flatter than the C because in the

diatonic semitone has (resp. has roughly) four commas. For the same reasons the Ddouble flat can't be equal to C but is (resp. is roughly) one comma flatter and the Cdouble sharp can't be equal to D but is (resp. is roughly) one comma sharper.
