If someone could expand on this and give good description of what Yasa was. Also This should be I think Yassa as the other guy pointed out. Can someone change this to Yasa?

[edit] Yassa - West African dish
"Yassa" is also the name of a traditional west African dish made from onions and olives. Perhaps set up new article with that information.
[edit] The meaning of the word
The word was used by Uyghurs, thus is used in turkic languages too. Yasa means (even in current Turkish) law. "Anayasa" (main yasa) means the constitution. It was known by others as "Yasak" (which means forbidden) because it said what was forbidden for them to do. (that word is used in currrent turkish as well) Nerval 12:43, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
