The Hosné'eh dialect is the standard language of much of the Sowaár modern popular music canon, though many bands use Hosné'eh-accented High Sowaár, to the chagrin of many a purist. This convention was established by early Sowaár band T'elyamokhliib ("The Grey Ospreys") who hailed from Hosné'eh. Use of High Sowaár is limited to "grandiose" songs with historical, fantasy or religious themes, or songs describing upper-class life. | The Hosné'eh dialect is the standard language of much of the Sowaár modern popular music canon, though many bands use Hosné'eh-accented High Sowaár, to the chagrin of many a purist.

*'''Sowaár math metal''' uses lyrics in complex, Sanskrit-like poetic meters of Classical Sowaár. The music's rhythm follows the poetic meter; heavy metal bass guitars or amplified guitar solos may improvise in traditional Sowaár scales. The lyrics are often in High Sowaár [equivalent of RP], but some are in the Hosne'éh dialect usually used for popular music. Power chords are also often used. | *'''Sowaár math metal''' uses lyrics in complex, Sanskrit-like poetic meters of Classical Sowaár.
