Kata kata humor

I have been interested in training Kyokushin for years, but there are no clubs in my town. I currently train Japanese Jujutsu and there are elements of Kyokushin in it, like Mae Geri, Gedan Geri, Kin Geri, Mawashi Geris to the legs, Chudan Tsukis in the stomach etc. We do some pad work and don't use gloves or shin guards, but the main part of the curriculum in Jujutsu are obviously throws and joint locks.
I tried Shotokan briefly, but barely broke a sweat and the emphasis on katas kind of throw me off. I am very hesitant on Muay Thai, simply because of the culture surrounding it.
Is it worth going back to Shotokan to get a foundation for the day I finally get to train Kyokushin? And what can I train on my own in the meantime? I'll usually go for the knuckle push-ups in Jujutsu, but what else?

Most of the time I see ap champs they're just control mages, the only "carries" I can think of are kassadin and kata but they both have unplayable early games so idk, are there any actual ap carry champs that aren't sit under turret simulators for the first 10 mins

Fragments of chapter 2:
Naruto put on his usual orange jumpsuit he wore and Kichiro would wrap around hos neck like a little scarf. No one would notice as it was usually chilly this time of the year. Now Naruto made his way downstairs to head out the door. He passed his family along with Jiraya and Tsunade who was having breakfast, Kushina called out. "Naru-chan? Where are you going?". Naruto turned around to see the whole family look at him in confusion but Menma just glared at him. "Its your siblings birthday breakfast! You should be eating and spending time with them" Minato said with a smile which pissed Naruto off heavily.
"You do realize that it's not just their birthday, don't you? It's also my birthday as well...." Naruto said, clenching his teeth in anger. The whole family minus Naruko and Menma was shocked to the core. They forgot all about Naruto. They were so focused on the Naruko and Menma that Naruto wasn't even a thought. "S-Sure we did, Sochi! We planned of giving Naruko a birthday breakfast, Menma a birthday lunch and you a birthday dinner!" Kushina said with Minato going along with her. Naruto watched all of them in their faces and spoke. "I'm not a dumbass you know. You pulled that out of your ass so fast, you digested the alphabet and shat out that piece of fuckery you called an idea!" Naruto said, heading out the door while hearing Tsunade open her mouth.
"You brat! Apologize to your parents! That was uncalled for!" She yelled. Naruto just scoffed as he left, not opting to stay and hear his mother sniffles and sobbs. Just how bad did they mess this up? Meanwhile, Naruto quickly makes it to his favorite training grounds, the Forest of Death. Once they got their, Kichiro hopped off Naruto's shoulders and landed in front of him. "Okay Naruto! Whats up now?" Kichiro asked. Naruto smiled in glee as he but his finger. "Time to work on my Kenjutsu..... Summoning Jutsu!" He shouted out and slammed his hand on the ground to summon Takeo. The fox itself smiled evily at the
two. "Get ready for your daily tortue routine!" That caused Naruto to
cringe.
"Here! Take this!" Takeo unsealed a wooden sword from his scroll he pulled out and threw it at Naruto. "A bokken? Why not a real sword?". Takeo raised an eyebrow at him. "Are you stupid? When growing up. before knowing how to walk, did you start trying to run and ride bikes and climb trees?". After seeing the blonde shake his head, he spoke. "Then You will have to learn to fight with this before you even think if touching a real sword, kit. Now, let me teach you the katas!" Takeo said es Naruto started training with the bokken without second thought
while Kichiro watched for a few hours
Alter that though, Takeo stopped. "Someone is coming, Naruto. It was a short session so I'll make sure to double your training next we meet Takeo said as he disappeared, only getting Naruto to shake in uncomfortabile, Naruto sighed as Kichiro jumped on his shoulders and Naruto tied the bokken to his shoulders which was the time Two ANBLU came to him. One was a weasle and the other was a dog and the latter spoke "Namikaze-sama, Hokage-sama has requested your presence at the Uzumaki-Namikaze residence.... Naruto frowned. 'Whats this about? They never tried this before? I'm getting a bad feeling from this. Kurama, "Me too kit.....but go anyway! Your "father" has already called for you' Kurama growled.
Naruto sighed as he spoke. "I'll be there" he said as he began to move. "We'll take you there immediately Weasel said as he put a hand on Naruto's shoulder and the three Shunshin to make it in front of the Hokage's mansion which was full of villagers and clans members of Konoha. He sighed as the meade his way through the villagers but once he made his way to the front door to enter, a tipsy villagee stopped him. "Hey!! Y-You're that brat... the N-amikaze ghost c-child!" He said getting a few people attention. Naruto started to grit his teeth. "Yes, that is me What of it, are you going to stop me from entering my own home?" He
said in distain, having to call this place his home.
"Are Y-You threatening me?! You little shit" "Are threatening the
Hokage-sama's son? That is at least punishable by treason!" Weasle
said with an edge. "N-N-No sir 1-1-1 apologize the villagee said as he
drunkily moved aside to allow them to pass. Naruto frowned as he
made his way inside the house with Weasle and Dog following. "You did
not have to do that, ANBU-san. I had it under control". "Be that as
may, Namikaze-sama, I must assure your safety no mattee the cost he
said as they made it into the living area where mostly everyone was.
"Naruto! You little gremlin! Where have you been?!" Kushina said while
Naruko and Menma were behind her.
"I was out training. Thats why I was so late" he respond "Ha! You? Training? Oh please, idiot! You couldn't even throw a Kunai right yet you're training?! Leave it to the professionals, loser" Menma insulted causing the whole party to laugh. Naruto just watched him in an uncaring attitude. To hirn, Menma was a dumbass. Nothing more, nothing less. "Come one Nii-san! Let's open our presents!" Naruko said grabbing Naruto's hand to pull him but Naruto ripped it away. "What presents? You two have presents, /don't. Go ahead an open them, I don't care anymore...." He said looking to the side. The room went silent. They also had forgotten about Naruto but vowed to themselves they would buy or whip up something later, feeling utterly bad about the poor boy.
As Naruko and Menma moved to the table where a pile of presents were, Naruto was being harassed by the villagers and smaller clans that wish the boy a happy birthday and promises of presents from them soon. Naruto knew why they did that, it was to get in better graces with his parents so he just told them to stop with the promises and the leave him the hell alone. Menma and Naruko were just bursting their gifts with glee and obtained new awesome stuff like Kunai, shuriken, etc. Then The godparents came up next with big scrolls.
"Menma, I want you to sign the Toad sammoning scroll, you'll be training under them from here on out!" He said. Tsunade went to Naruko. "And You, Naruko-chan, you will sign the Stug contract and train under them!". The two grinned like idiots and signed the scroll with glee with Naruto watching them. "Heh! You know, if you hadn't given me the fox summoning contract, I'd be rather jealous, ya know he said to the fox, I know, you're welcome kit! Kurama said. "Umm...could. Nii-san sign it too?". Jiraya and Tsunade both widened their eyes in shock. Oh crap/forgot about Naruto! If he signs the Toad/Slug contract, I can hold this over Tsunade's/Jiraya's head for a while! They both thought.
"Yeah sure!" They both said as they raced to Naruto, who was just sitting in a chair in the far side of the room with his eyes closed, hoping that this'll all end soon. He opened one eye to see Jiraya and Tsunade standing in front of him with grins on their faces and scrolls in their hands. "What?" He asked, "Naruto, I present to you the privilege to sigال the Toad contract!" Jiraya smiled. "No way! Naruto! You should sign the Slug contract! Its a way better option for you!" She said with a beautiful smile. The crowd laughed at the actions of the two Sannin. Minato smiled. I hope Naruto picks the Toads, that was my contract when training with Jiraya-Sensei!" He thought
Sochi, please pick the slugs! If you do, me, you and your sister can work together and be closer Kushina thought. Since this morning, Kushina thought about all the times her family has ever done anything with her eldest and when she drew upon none, she ran to the family photos to barely see any pictures of Naruto. She broke down crying in the photo album, she couldn't believe they ignored her baby so much of his life. What is his favorite food? Colour? Hobby? Did he have friends? All these things she didn't know, she knew Menma's and Naruko's but nothing of Naruto. He was like a stranger to her and she hated it. She vowed from then that she would change. So she was hoping she could start with his contract summoning. But when Naruto said his next words, shocked not
only her But the entire party was shocked.
"No, I'd rather not sign either" he said. "W-What? What do you mean you'd rather not?!" Tsunade yelled. "Kid, you do realize that this type of thing comes around once in a blue moon, right?" Jiraya said, "I know but I would rather not, I already have a caple contract". That widened everyones eyes. "Oh yeah?! With who?" Menma said, calling his bluft. Naruto smiled as he but his finger and ran through the hand seals.
"Summoning Jutsul" He shouted as he slammed his hand down and sooner or later, Sonya appeared. "Naruto-kun! You called me? Is there anything could do for you?" She said with usual kindness in her voice.
Everyone around was shocked to their very core. Naruto had the fox contract. This is unbelievable. "No, Sony-chan, just probing a point. You can go now and tell Takeo-Sensei I'm sorry about the interrupted training and we'll continue soon!" He said. Sonya nodded and puffed. out of their plain. "N-N-Naruto? Where did you get that contract?"
Minato asked. "I found it off a deceased shinobi in the Forest Of Death! go there from time to time to train" he said. Menma frowned he marched in front of Naruto, "Give me the scroll, I wanna sign it!", Naruto chuckled and slapped Menma's cheek soft but firm, "Even if I wanted to, I can't it's not up to me! So.....sorry" he said as he passed. Menma and made his way upstairs. "Sochi, don't you want to stay for cake? Please, let's enjoy this time as a family!" Kushina said with a loving smile.
Naruto stayed silent. He felt his chakra flare but he couldn't suppress it in time or in simple words, he didn't try to. He turned to this 'family and guests and spoke. "Family? Family is a strange word to me, it even sounds funny when I say it. Family......Family. It sounds like it doesn't belong in my mouth concerning you guys. Family, thats the most terrifying thing to call this piece of shit group" Naruto said as he ran upstairs in a hurry to go to bed. Once the door slammed Kushina broke down in tears. "He hates us! I knew it!" She said as she ran upstairs to cry. Minato sighed. "Party's over everyone! Thank you for coming but I kindly ask that you All exit, please!" He said as the room cleared out. As soon as it did, Minato made it upstairs to comfort his wife while Merma
and Naruko stayed downstairs
Nii-san....why? Can't you see we love you and we're sorry? She thought
as tears streamed down her face as she cleaned up from the party.
Menma growled. Stupid idiot! Making mom cry! I'll show that worthless
loser he thought as he vowed to make Naruto pay, one way or another.

Alright so to start this post off i need to give some context. Im a highschooler who is currently doing online school as i do not live in my home country at the moment, i had been rotting in my room for roughly one year with absolutely no social life until my dad suggested starting karate (kyokushin) and i decided to try it out.
At first things seemed fine, the owner of the dojo (7th dan) was all smiles constantly which was off-putting to me at first, but i decided that hes such a high dan that it should be fine.
Fast foward a year later and im knees deep in this shit as i have somehow advanced to 7th kyu, facing a kyu exam for the 6th (which im currently regretting signing up for). I do learn fast, but i am accurately aware that this is not a normal progression speed when it comes to the kyus. I have some absolutely talented people as my senpais and i look up to them, but i also have some people who are 2-4 kyus above me and somehow doing worse than me, not only that but there are people who are the same kyu as me who still cant get kihon right.
Extra highlights from the dojo include, black belts that arent even 15, owneshihan owning a "nutrition club" thats just a herbal life recruiting scheme and last but not least extremely high seminar fees, including "free" herbal life bs snacks that are definitely included in the high fees
The latest bs that happened: As my dad also decided to join the dojo (8th kyu going to be 7th if he passes the exam) and nationals are coming up, we decided to try out family kata along with both of us also wanting to do individual and bo kata, everything sounds alright we know all our katas and the ones we havent perfected yet we still have time to practice, right? Wrong, as shihan decided to pressure the entire dojo into joining synchrone. And lets ignore the fact that he did that just so he can pocket more money out of us and maybe say "alright we can do that" But me and my dad got put on a team with this absolute horrible of a classmate we have, the woman isnt a bad person or anything but dear lord she has been in the dojo longer than me and somehow still cant get basic kata right.
Now here i am, hyping myself up to tell shihan im signing out of the synchrone and trying to come up with a plan as to what i can do once im back to my home country (do i start from a white belt, do i just quit karate as we have exactly 2 dojos in my town 1 of which ive tried and absolutely hated, so if i also dont like the other one i wont have any options).
Anyone got any advice??
Tldr: started practicing karate because i was rotting in my room for roughly a year with no social contacts, ended up knees deep in some bs, almost 6th kyu in a year, studying under an incredibly greedy man with no other options but to stick it out or just outright quit (which i really dont want to do). Help!
Ps. This is my first reddit post so sorry if it sounds incredibly convoluted 😬

Abkhaz elders from the Aibga, 1860s.
Abkhazians from the village of Pskhu, 1860s. Photo by an unknown photographer
In the same area described above, but moving away from the seashore and approaching the mountain gorges, three Abkhazian societies inhabit: Akhchipsou, Aibga, and Pskhu, which some classify as part of the Jigetian***(Sadzs)*** group, while others consider them a distinct branch called Medozuyi or Medoveyevtsi. The Akhchipsou live in the upper reaches of the Pskhu and Mzymta rivers. Did not bow to anyone, they are known for their warlike spirit and ferocity. They maintained close ties with their neighbors, the Ubykhs, and participated in their ventures. The high mountains and impregnable gorges occupied by the Akhchipsou, along with their inaccessibility from the sea, presented significant difficulties for subduing this society, which at one time was the most troublesome of all the Abkhazians for Russia.
The Aibga live between the Akhchipsou and Pskhu societies, in the upper reaches of the Khashuapse River; this is the smallest of the three Medoveyevtsi societies, primarily engaged in theft and robbery in Abkhazia and among the Circassians who lived on the northern slope of the Caucasus range. The Pskhu live in the upper reaches of the Bzyb and Mezhita rivers. This society shares with all the Medoveyevtsi a propensity for predation and the capture of prisoners for later sale to Turkish merchants. In 1840, they submitted to Russia and handed over hostages, but in the last war with the Circassians, they took part against the Russians. The population of all the Medoveyevtsi, before the resettlement of the Circassians to Turkey, amounted to approximately 7-8 thousand souls.
E.P. Kovalevsky. Essays on the Ethnography of the Caucasus. 1867.
Abadzes, inhabiting the eastern shore of the Black Sea from Bzyb to Sochi, are divided into many societies, independent of each other, free, and not subject to any authority. In each society, there is one or two families who, due to the antiquity of their lineage, wealth, and numerous members, enjoy general respect and inviolability based on the number of avengers they can mobilize in case of an offense against one of their members. There is no popular enmity between these societies, which does not prevent individual families from engaging in feuds that often disturb general harmony.
There are as many societies as there are villages, and they are as follows:

1. Akhchipsou, at the upper reaches of the Mzymta River... situated on slopes and small clearings at the foot of mountains forming the gorges of the mentioned rivers. The houses (of which there are about 200) are scattered over a distance of almost 5 versts, each family having a garden and a small field sown with corn and gomi near their dwelling. Communication within the village is extremely difficult, consisting of narrow, rocky paths often blocked by huge masses of stone... steeply disappearing over the precipitous bank of the Mzymta, across which there are 2 suspension bridges, with fords for crossing horses nearby. The dominant family here is the Marshanias, extremely numerous, the most senior and respected being Dudarukva Bagarkan-ipa Marshania.
2. Aibga, at the upper reaches of the Psou River, somewhat smaller than Akhchipsou and containing up to 180 families, also settled by the Marshanias; in addition to them, there are the uzdens Vakhokh, Tlabog, and Kota, who have some influence among the people.
3. Chuzhgucha, on the Chuzhipsy River, a tributary of the Mzymta; its population extends to 100 families, who have built their dwellings on the forested heights along this river. They are poorer than the inhabitants of Akhchipsou and Aibga, due to the lack of space, which does not offer the resources enjoyed by the mentioned villages. Here too, the Marshanias are the primary family, with the senior and wealthiest being Kazdatuk Dudarukva Marshania.

The villages of Akhchipsou, Aibga, and Chuzhgucha, being not far from each other, in naturally fortified places, are closely connected through the Marshania family that inhabits them, and together they are known to their neighbors as the Medoveyevtsi. Related to the Abkhazians, they speak the same language and differ neither in lifestyle nor customs from the latter. Among the highlanders, the Medoveyevtsi are known for their predatory behavior, aided by the impregnability of their homes, shielded by mountains from raids by neighbors who might seek retribution.

1. Chuzhi, on the Khudaps River, about 100 families, whose homes are scattered on more open heights than the previous ones; here, grapes are grown, which the Medoveyevtsi do not have, and farming is in better condition. The Chuzhi society acknowledges the authority of Prince Djimir-ipa Islam Baga.
2. Chua, on the Mtsa River, with about 150 families, living spread out over a distance of 3 versts, recognizing the authority of Prince Bezish Achu.

The inhabitants of the Chuzhi and Chua societies, living amicably among themselves, call themselves Abadzes, not adopting the name Sadz, which belongs specifically to the coastal inhabitants of the Abadze tribe.

1. The village of Sochipsy, or Oblagukuadzh, located on both sides of the Sochi River, in a rather extensive valley near its mouth; it has up to 450 families, partly Abazins, partly Ubykhs, and a small number of Turks, united under the name Sashe. The Turks in this village have one of their main settlements and conduct trade with the highlanders from here; their influence on the inhabitants is noticeable by the zeal of the latter in performing the rites of the Muslim religion, which is not seen in other villages.

Prince Ali Akhmet Oblagu, whose origin is from the Adyghe tribe, is a zealous Muslim surrounded by Turks. The Sashe tribe obeys him, although not in all cases; his influence particularly declined when the natives, for unknown reasons, began to suspect him of secret relations with the Russians, but nevertheless, he is the strongest among the princes and owners from the Shah River to the Bzyb River and enjoys good prosperity.
Prince Oblagu*'s house is built one verst from Sochipsy and at the same distance from the sea, where a small barricade of trees and earth has been made to cover the road leading to the village.
In Sochipsy, three languages are in use: Circassian, Abazin, and Ubykh.

1. Khaltis, on the right bank of the Mtsa, near its mouth; about 60 families; adheres to the Hamysh society.
2. Hamysh, on the slope of the mountain, above the sea itself along the river of the same name, recognizes Prince Djembulat Hamysh as their prince, weak even in his own domain, although considered by lineage to be the senior of the Abkhazian princes. There are about 80 families in the village.
3. The Eskhoripsh or Artkuadzh society counts up to 200 families, settled along the Khudaps River, two versts from its mouth; it obeys no one; the uzdens of the Arta family reside there.
4. The Aredba society, settled in the Liesh valley, counts about 430 families, benefiting from the plains, which other villages lack. Farming and cattle breeding are in better condition here than elsewhere, and there is a small herd of horses. The wealth of the Liesh valley inhabitants is known among the Sadzes.

The Aredba brothers - Beslan, Sousran, and Chigua - the senior members of the lineage, have no authority over the people but are respected. They lost their influence when they entered into relations with the Russians and have had to endure frequent reproaches for this.
The settlement of the Aredba society, encompassing the Liesh valley in a crescent shape, is divided into the following auls: Kereka, Abakha, Banshiripsh, Uchuga, and Khishkhoripsh, lying on the slopes of hills bordering the Liesh valley from the east, Kata, and Djankhota...
Along the road leading from the seashore through a small interval to the mentioned villages, 2 or 3 versts from the mouth of the Mzymta to the north, residents have built a large, but weak for defense, barricade on the very sandy shore.

1. Gechkuadzh, on the right side of the Psou River, holds up to 80 families and is inhabited by the Gech family, among whom Edyrbey is the most significant.
2. Tsandrypsh or Tsankuadzh, along the Khuchups River; it has up to 120 houses, mostly occupied by the uzdens of the Tsanbai family, the senior being Hadji Salama.
3. Khyscha, on a mountain, the residence of the Anchabadze family, counts no more than 40 families.
4. Begeucha, or Bagrypsh, the village closest to Gagra, contains about 100 families.

d) Psou – between the sources of the Bzyb and Apsta rivers, Aibga – at the upper reaches of the Psou River, Akhchipsou – at the upper reaches of the Mzymta River, Chuzhgucha – at the upper reaches of the Mdy River. These four societies, known among the Circassians living on the northern side of the mountains under the common name Medoveyevtsi, are Abkhazians who have retreated for various reasons to the impregnable rocks adjacent to the eternal snows. Occupying places that are difficult to cultivate, poor in pastures and land products, they are in need of bread, livestock, and clothing. Only in the villages of Akhchipsou and Chuzhgucha do fruit trees grow, which are found along the seashore in Abkhazia and among the Ubykhs. The impregnability of their homes and extreme poverty have made the Medoveyevtsi predators, feared by their neighbors. The Medoveyevtsi form kinship ties with their fellow Abkhazians and Sadz, sometimes maintaining friendly relations with them, and at other times being at enmity.
The Medoveyevtsi are openly hostile to the Circassians: crossing the Caucasus mountain range, they descend into the forested gorges of the Urup, Laba, Khodz, and Belaya rivers, killing Circassians there and capturing their people and livestock. Almost every year, the residents of Chuzhgucha and Akhchipsou drive off sheep from the Abazeks; only once did the Abazeks, having gathered in large numbers, manage to rob several border houses in Akhchipsou.
The Medoveyevtsi have no religious beliefs; only some of the nobles perform the rites prescribed by the Muslim faith, without caring, however, about its doctrines.
In all four Medoveyevtsi villages, the Marshania***(Marshan)*** family is dominant, divided into two lines – the Mas-ipas and the Bagarkan-ipas; the former live in the village of Psou, the latter in Aibga, Akhchipsou, and Chuzhgucha.
Judging by the places they occupy, the Medoveyevtsi cannot be considered to number more than 5,000 males.

The coastal Djigets, Shapsugs, and Natukhay are more than ever showing a desire to submit, but the main, so far insurmountable, obstacle in this is the Ubykhs and the mountain Djiget societies of Aibga and Akhchipsou. The leader of this hostile faction is Hadji-Berzok, an old man who is wealthy, enterprising, and has great influence among the people.

The Medoveyevtsi, who occupy the depths of the mountains, are particularly renowned for the destructiveness of their raids and instill fear even in the mountain tribes, to the extent that they are used to scare children in the mountains...

REPORT BY I. R. ANREP, CHIEF OF THE BLACK SEA COASTAL STRIP, TO E. A. GOLOVIN, COMMANDER OF THE CAUCASUS CORPS, ABOUT THE DJIGET AND UBKH NOBLES WHO TOOK THE OATH OF LOYALTY
May 25, 1841
Following report No. 133 from May 6, I am honored to inform Your Excellency about the submission of the Djiget community of Hamish. I am also honored to report that now all the coastal Djigets and part of the Ubykhs have taken an oath of eternal loyalty to Your Excellency and have given hostages.
I am very pleased to inform Your Excellency of this event and would like to present the details of this matter, which promises very important results, with your permission.
The people living in the area between the Ubykhs and Abkhazians are called Saadzen; among the Georgian tribes, these people are known as the Djigets. The Djigets speak Abkhaz and, in their traditions, resemble the Abkhazians more than their other neighbors, the Ubykhs. Since ancient times, the Abkhaz rulers have had influence over them and held them in high regard. The princes and noble families of Abkhazia are related to the Djigets. The social structures of these two peoples are identical: without question, the princes and noble families held power.
During the conquest of Abkhazia, the alliance between this region and the Djigets was destroyed, and in recent years, hostility arose. As a result, the Djigets joined forces with the Ubykhs, who are also known for their warrior skills, and together they launched operations against Abkhazia and our fortifications. The Djigets can be divided into two main groups: the highlanders (Akhchipsa, Aibga, and Pshu) and the coastal people (Hisha, Tsvandrypsh, Gecha, Areda, and Hamish).
The first group can be estimated at 2 to 3 thousand households. The highland Djigets live in the upper reaches of the Mzymta, Psou, and Bzyb rivers, which are difficult to access. Historically, this region has served as a refuge for those pursued by our administration and sought by their people for revenge. Among the surrounding peoples, the highland Djigets are not known for great warrior skills and valor, but they are the most tireless and agile bandits. In the northern part of the Caucasus, they are famous as Medoveev for their predatory activities.
The coastal Djigets' territories are especially divided by the high mountainous area between the Psou and Bzyb rivers, but in the area between these mountains, there are many fertile, rich, and densely populated valleys. Proximity to the sea and trade provided the coastal Djigets with various comforts of life, thus the violent raids on the coast had a direct impact on them. On the other hand, the strengthening of Gagra blocked the best route to Abkhazia for them, forcing the Djigets to take difficult and unsafe snowy mountain paths.
A few years ago, Hadji Berzek swore not to travel to Abkhazia via the mountains after losing 700 men in a snowstorm. We had the means to invade the lands of the Djigets, frequently threatened them on this matter, and sometimes carried out our threats when possible. In 1838, we organized an expedition to capture the Pshu community, which was scattered above the Bzyb River and consisted of 300 households. Circumstances prevented this move, but in 1839, the Pshus themselves surrendered. Subsequently, in 1840, the Hisha community (150 households), subject to the Anchabadze princes, and several villages of Tsvandrypsh closer to Abkhazia were conquered.

9. Achyps and Pskhu
The highland Abkhaz tribe Achyps(Akhchipsou) inhabited the headwaters of the Mzymta River in the territory of historical Abkhazia, which is now part of the Russian Federation. The center of the Achyps society was the village and area of Gәbaa-dәы ("Gubaa clan clearing"), known in Russian sources as Kbaade. The tribal self-designation of the group is Achyps (аҳҷыԥсы́//ҳаҷыԥсы́), and it is known by the same name to other Abkhaz communities. Representatives of this group call their language а́ԥсашәа "Abkhaz language". It is noteworthy that the Karachays refer to the Abkhaz as khachyps-ly, as they had the greatest contact with this Abkhaz community.
The Pskhu society lived in a mountain basin at the headwaters of the Bzyb River. In addition to their common self-designation as а́ԥсыуа "Abkhaz", the Pskhu people also refer to their group with the hybrid term ԥсҳәы́-аҳҷыԥсы "Pskhu Achyps". Linguistically, their speech is hardly distinguishable from the speech of the Achyps, and it can also be defined as a dialect of Achyps. The self-designation of both groups (Achyps and Pskhu), now represented only in Turkey, is а́ԥсуа//а́ԥсауа "Abkhaz".
The phonetic system of the Achyps dialect coincides with the system of the Aatsyn dialect of the Bzyb dialect, the Turkish Bzyb dialect, the Sadz dialect of the Tsvydji dialect (but in the absence of the phoneme [f']), and the Tsabal dialect. Like in the Tsabal and Tsvydji dialects, the finite forms of dynamic verbs in the present tense end with -oo-t, while those of stative verbs end with -oo-p. Another feature of Achyps is that it has parallel forms for stative verbs: -u-p (as in the Bzyb and Abzhuy dialects) and -y-t (as in the Sadz dialect and in the Kvin dialect of the Ashkhar dialect), although forms with -y-t are rarer, e.g., "йы́-ҟа-йт" ("that is, there is") alongside the more common "йы́-ҟа-уп" ("there is"). In the Sadz dialect, these forms are also parallel, but forms with -y-t are, on the contrary, more common.
The villages inhabited by representatives of the Achyps and Pschu groups are located in the following provinces of north-central Turkey: Düzce and Sakarya.

The point that should be known in this information is that villages and neighborhoods such as Nüfren Beylice, Hacımbey, Halilbey, Akçayır Şabatbey, Nüfren Soğuksu, Tepsek, Kanca, Bıçkıatik, Ayazdağı, Çukurhan, Süleymanbey, Zekeriya Mahalle, Harziya Mahalle, Çayköy, Kurak Mahalle are not entirely of Akhchipsou origin. It is a mixture of Akhchipsou, Pskhu and Aibga. There is no clear information about which villages and families are Akhchipsou, which are Pskhu, and which are Aibga. Research on the subject continues.
Today, the Pskhu villages established between Hendek and Düzce in Turkey are Nüfren Beylice, Hacımbey, Halilbey, Akçayır Şabatbey, Nüfren Soğuksu, Tepsek, Kanca, Bıçkıatik, Ayazdağı, Çukurhan, Bıçkı, Karaçökek villages. The Pskhus living here define themselves as Apsua. These villages are not entirely of Pskhu origin, but are mixed with Akhchipsou and Aibga groups. Some of these villages no longer have Abaza(Abkhaz).

Cultural Etiquette

• **Respect for the Monarchy**: Thai people hold their royal family in high regard, so showing disrespect towards the monarchy can lead to serious consequences.
  
• **Temple Etiquette**: Dress modestly when visiting temples (cover shoulders and knees), remove shoes before entering, and avoid pointing your feet towards Buddha images.
  
• **Greetings**: The traditional Thai greeting, the “wai,” involves pressing your palms together and bowing slightly. It is polite to return a wai when someone greets you this way.
  

Food and Drink

• **Street Food**: Thai street food is renowned worldwide. Must-try dishes include Pad Thai, Som Tum (papaya salad), Tom Yum Goong (spicy shrimp soup), and Mango Sticky Rice.
  
• **Dining Etiquette**: Use a spoon and fork for most dishes. The spoon is held in the right hand and used to eat, while the fork is used to push food onto the spoon.
  
• **Drinks**: Tap water is not generally safe to drink. Stick to bottled water and try local beverages like Thai iced tea and fresh coconut water.
  

Transportation

• **Tuk-tuks and Taxis**: Tuk-tuks are a fun way to travel short distances in cities. Always negotiate the fare before starting the ride. Metered taxis are also available and should use the meter.
  
• **Public Transport**: Bangkok has an efficient BTS Skytrain and MRT subway system. Buses and songthaews (shared taxis) are common in other areas.
  
• **Rentals**: Motorbike and car rentals are popular for exploring at your own pace. Ensure you have the appropriate licenses and wear helmets for safety.
  

Safety Tips

• **Health**: Stay hydrated, use insect repellent, and consider vaccinations for diseases like Hepatitis A and B, and Typhoid.
  
• **Scams**: Be wary of common scams, such as overly friendly locals offering tours or deals that seem too good to be true.
  
• **Travel Insurance**: It’s advisable to have travel insurance that covers health, accidents, and theft.
  

Best Time to Visit

• **Cool Season**: November to February is the most pleasant time to visit, with cooler temperatures and less humidity.
  
• **Hot Season**: March to May can be very hot, but it’s a good time for beach destinations.
  
• **Rainy Season**: June to October brings monsoon rains, but it’s still possible to travel and enjoy fewer crowds and lush landscapes.
