Chihazh is commonly considered by Galhafan astronomers to have 11 known major planets in 10 orbits[1], although we would probably classify Havatrakh as a brown dwarf rather than as a planet. Names are given in both modern Ivetsian with their derivation from Classical Sanle and in Classical Blafu, the language of scholarship. Planetary names are descriptive. In Ivetsian, they end with a suffix derived from the Classical Sanle tkab meaning "star", but now used to simply mean "planet". In modern Ivetsian, this morpheme is usually -takh, but can sometimes be -dakh or -ska. Excluding Galhaf itself, there were five planets known to ancient observers.

Notes

  1. Some astronomers define "major planet" differently and thus count more than 11
  2. Due to its proximity to Chihazh, it is always lost in the glare
  3. Classical Kasshian
  4. Sub-brown dwarf
  5. Trojan planet
  6. In 3:2 resonance with Vozataftakh
  7. In 2:3 orbital resonance with Havatrakh
  8. Originally known as Jishiska, then Dakuhezh
  9. 9.0 9.1 In 3:2 resonance with Nyatakh
