Classical Netagin poetry uses meters similar to Hebrew piyyut meters. For example, the marnin aka hazaj meter is SLLLSLLL, where S must be an open syllable with a reduced vowel (underlyingly either an ''ă'' /ə/ or an ''y'' /ɨ/) and L is any heavy syllable (i.e. having a non-reduced vowel). Poetry from the Classical Netagin era is replete with allusions to older Classical Netagin literature (much like Hebrew piyyutim and Classical Chinese literature); there are some poems that are entirely "Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra". | Classical Netagin poetry uses meters similar to Hebrew piyyut meters.
