Another term in Egypt for what we know as "Beledi" is "Masmoudi Saghir". The larger Masmoudi that is taught with 8 beats is known as "Masmoudi Kabir".
Beledi means "country" as in "rural folks".

There are certainly alternate terms for much of what we do and use such as: Tupan, Tabl Beledi, Daoulli , and Davul all representing the larger two headed drum played with beater and switch. or Tabla, darbukah,derbekke, darbakke, doumbeg, dumbek all used to represent our goblet drum. Morrocco (Carolina Vargas) has collected over 40 different terms in the Middle-East that is used to refer to finger cymbals.

What is at issue here is the confusion that is caused when people re-name a known rhythm by calling it by a name of another rhythm that is entirely different. In another thread I mentioned how the rhythm that we know as Chiftitelli is not played by the Greek bands. When they ask for Chiftitelli, theyt are asking for Maqsum. In the posted video there was a rhythm called "Sufi" which is what most of us know as a Masmoudi Kabir with three doums in the front end.

We are a very large nation here in the US and we try to standardize things a bit so that we can communicate with each other. I don't consider that a bad thing, we are not forcing it on musicians in the Middle-East, but it makes it easier when we talk to each other.
The great master Souhail Kaspar bristles whenever anyone uses the term "ka" for a left hand rim strike. He prefers to use the word "tek" for both right and left hand because that is how it was taught to him in the Syrian conservatories. Most of us will continue to use the term "ka" because it makes it easier to distinguish right from left hand. Most of the other Arabic musicians that are teaching here have adapted the use of the term "ka" when they talk to us because it's not worth fighting over. If you study in the Middle-East, you won't learn it that way.

I think it is interesting to witness videos like this because they do throw other things into the mix, but please keep in mind, many of the rhythms there are not traditional Arabic rhythms, many of them were influenced by Latin American music (the world has gotten smaller, you see).

I would never think to tell a person from the Middle-East that this must be the name for a given rhythm or the actual rhythm itself, because they already know the way that they were taught it and it is correct............. for where they learned it from.
I am saying that for expedients sake, when we are teaching these rhythms here, in the Americas, perhaps we can use some sort of standardized language that will make it easier to communicate. Then add the alternate terms to them as an aside so that students of the music can know them for when they may play with musicians from different parts of the world.

If you start teaching new students and bombard them with all of the terminology from the beginning, you're going to scare and confuse them.
