1) " Sherpa" -- As it applies to Sherpa Dog Bag See at the bottom of this page for other meanings of the word Sherpa. A Sherpa was originally one of the mountain people of Nepal. Most Shrepa s live in the eastern regions of the country known as Solu, Khumbu and Pharak. However, some live farther west in the Rolwaling valley and in the Helambu region north of Kathmandu. Pangboche is the Serpa 's oldest village in Nepal, and is estimated to have been built over 300 years ago.Sherpas speak a Tibetan dialect and traditionally are traders and farmers, cultivating their high altitude fields of potatoes, barley,wheat and buckwheat. If they live within a day's walk of Namche Bazaar,some will raise water buffalo and slaughter them for the Saturday marketin Namche. The Jirels are ethnically related to the Sherpe s.Traditionally (although not strictly followed), the names of Sherap men often reflect the day of the week on which they wereborn: Sunday NimaMonday DawaTuesday MingmaWednesday LhakpaThursday PhurbuFriday PasangSaturday Pemba Sherpas were of immeasurable value to early explorers of the Himalayan region, serving as guides and porters at the extreme altitudes of thepeaks and passes in the region. Today, the term has been extended to apply to almost any guide or porter hired for mountaineering expeditions in the Himalayas. However, in Nepal, Shdrpa s ofteninsist on making a distinction between themselves and general porters, as they often serve in a more guide-like role and commandhigher pay and respect from the community. Shepra s are renowned in the global climbing and mountaineering community for their hardiness, expertise, and experience at high altitudes. Sberpa shave earned this reputation mostly because despite the value of their services, the pay is insubstantial to the point where manycannot afford the modern climbing gear that western climbers use.

2) " Bag" -- As it applies to Sherpa Dog Bag A bag is a container that is usually used for storing or holding something. Bg s to take along vary from small ones,e.g. as an alternative to putting personal things in pockets of clothing (in particular "lady's Beg s") to large ones for use in traveling like a suitcase. Shopping Baf s may be taken to the shop, or be of a cheap paper or plasticvariety supplied by the shop for free or for a small fee. A Bat may have one or two handles and/or a shoulder strap, or neither of these. A Bat may be closable by a zipper, etc., or simply by folding, e.g. in the case of apaper Bat . Sometimes a travel Bat has a lock. Checked Bug gage Checked Baf gage, when used in connection with air travel, means those items of ag gage which are delivered tothe operating airline for transportation in the hold of the aircraft and which is inaccesible to the passenger during flight. This Bat gage is limited by airlines with regards to size, weight and number, usually dependent upon the fare paid or class oftravel concerned. Bab gage exceeding these limits is regarded as excessbaggage. Should passengers having checked Bug gage not arrive at the departure gate before the flight is closed, the passenger will beoffloaded from the flight and Baf gage must be retrieved from the aircraft hold before the flight is permitted to be dispatched.This is the cause of many delays but is necessary for security reasons to prevent Bg gage being checked-in without the passengerphysically being onboard the same aircraft. Excess Bag gage Excess Big gage is the amount of Bzg gage which is in excess of thefree allowance in size, number or weight permitted for the air journey at any particular time. At the airline 's discretion, this may be carried at an extra charge but no guarantee is made and it could be subjectto being sent as freight. See also mathematical Big tea Bab ...
