Bujanski glossary (N)

This is a list of Bujanski words starting with N.

In Bujanski, N ("nje", possibly meaning "a cat") is the 5th letter. The first five letters of the modern alphabet, v-a-r-o-n, were chosen to spell an acronym and the word for "a king", "varon"!

	+ It mainly refers to freedom caused by refusing to be evil, or the growing opportunities caused by justice and understanding.
	+ The "freedom" to do everything wrong and harmful is considered a "chain" that stops the path to beztsæpje, because it creates an obsession and destroys a person's enlightenment.

* njettsæ smardi - "the boundless freedmen", a poetic term for Bujan or its peoples.
* njevjerǐba - atheism
	+ During the Bujanski War of Independence, many members of the Bujanski revolutionaries were atheists. This was either because the rulers of the Wannaenid colonies were theocracies, or *simply* because life under Wannaenid rule was bleak and murderous.
	+ Furthermore, Bujanski Rodnovery also believes that righteous non-Rodnovers also go to Paradise, or even Heaven, after their deaths for their good attitude in life. This included various atheist Bujanski, some of whom are honoured as national heroes.
