    1. Carnatic and Hindustani music share similar concepts but use different terminology:
      • Arohanam (Carnatic) = Aroha (Hindustani) – Ascending notes of a raga.
      • Avarohanam (Carnatic) = Avaroha (Hindustani) – Descending notes of a raga.
      • Gamakam (Carnatic) = Gamak (Hindustani) – Ornamental note variations.
      • Layam (Carnatic) = Laya (Hindustani) – The tempo or speed of a composition.
