As a genre, the meaning of the word varies geographically, so that the Western Nenets use it to refer to individual songs, whereas in the Eastern areas хынабц denotes a register of epic singing. (Puškareva 2000; 2001; Niemi & Lapsui 2004; Lukin 2017) See ‘Lyric poems’ and ‘Syo’ in Manuscripta Castreniana Jurak-Samoiedica Folkloristica.
