EN: poetry
The Spanish-sounding, more 'conyo' cousin of 'tula'. You use 'poesiya' when you want to sound intellectual or you're talking about Neruda. You use 'tula' when you're writing your high school crush a cheesy rhyme for Valentine's. Both are about feelings, but 'poesiya' feels like it needs a glass of wine.
From Spanish 'poesía' (poetry).
The native and more commonly used term is 'tula'. 'Poesiya' is often used in academic, literary, or more formal discussions about the art of poetry as a whole.
