ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Dayereh

Imagine you have a special circle that makes beautiful sounds when you hit it with your hands or a stick. This circle is called a Dayereh.

The Dayereh is made up of different parts. The main part is the circular frame, like a big hoop. Some Dayerehs have a handle that sticks out from the frame, so you can hold it easily.

Inside the frame, there is a special skin called a membrane. The membrane is stretched tightly across the frame and makes a nice sound when you hit it. It is just like a drumhead.

To play the Dayereh, you can hold it by the handle or by the frame itself. Then, you use your other hand to hit the membrane. When you hit it, the membrane vibrates and creates a sound. You can hit it softly for a quiet sound or hit it harder for a louder sound.

But that's not all! The Dayereh also has something special called jingles. Jingles are small metal discs that are attached to the frame. When you hit the membrane, the jingles move and make a tinkling sound. They add an extra sparkle to the beautiful music you are making.

People from different parts of the world play the Dayereh in their music. They use it in traditional songs and dances. So, it's not just a fun instrument to play, but it also brings joy and happiness to people who listen to its magical sound.
