+
+ @end itemize
+
+@item
+In string music to indicate that all notes in the passage thus
+indicated should be played on the same string. On the violin, for
+example, a series of notes to be played on the G string would be
+indicated @samp{sul G}, another series to be played on the D string
+would be indicated @samp{sul D}, and so on.

+the use of three notes of equal value in the time normally occupied by
+of two notes of equal value. The resulting rhythm can be expressed in

+of 6/4, or of a bar in 3/4 for one of 6/8. During the Baroque era,

-@emph{quadruple} (4/2, 4/4, 4/8) meter. 4/4 is also called common meter.
+The basic pattern of @ref{note value}s and @ref{accent}s that remains

+@emph{duple} or @emph{triple} depending on how the beat is grouped in

+@item In duple meters, the beat recurs in groups of two.
+
+@item In triple meters, the beat recurs in groups of three.

+

+

+
+@item Quintuple meter: groups of five
+
+@item Sextuple meter: groups of six. A special case of:

+@item etc.
+
+@end itemize
+
+Other than quadruple and sextuple meters, these other recurrence
+patterns were not frequently used prior to the 20th Century.
+
+In addition to classification by primary beat grouping, meters can be further
+classified by how the primary beat is subdivided: if in two, the meter is
+@emph{simple}; if in three, the meter is @emph{compound}.

+* About the French naming system: @emph{croche} refers to the note's "hook".
+Therefore, from the eighth note on, the note names mean @q{hook}, @q{doubled
+hook}, @q{trebled hook}, and so on.
-@item @strong{e} @tab mi @tab mi @tab E @tab e @tab e @tab e @tab e
+The rest names are based on the @emph{soupir}, or quarter rest. Subsequent
+rests are expressed as fractions thereof: half a @emph{soupir}, a quarter of
+a @emph{soupir}, and so on.
-@item
+Each of the following tables contains one type of note and its matching rest,
+with abbreviations that apply to both notes and rests. Just switch the part
+that means @q{note} with the part that means @q{rest}, for example:
-@item @strong{f} @tab fa @tab fa @tab F @tab f @tab f @tab f @tab f
+@itemize
-@item
+@item English: 16th @strong{note}, 16th @strong{rest}

-@item @strong{g} @tab sol @tab sol @tab G @tab g @tab g @tab g @tab g
+@end itemize

+I put a dash @q{-} when I could not find a language-specific abbreviation for a
+duration name. If you know of one that I missed, please send it to me, care of
+the lilypond-user discussion list.
