ஓரசைச் சீர்

Orasaich Seer

Explanation

A சீர் built from exactly 1 அசை - the shortest possible foot, rare on its own in classical verse.

Story

The rarest of the 4 சீர் types - a single beat almost never carries a whole foot's weight alone in classical verse, which is exactly why it stands out when it does.

Example

A single-beat foot, the shortest of the 4 சீர் types.
