word of the weak - hemidemisemiquaver

 


(un notare bene pedantico - german should NOT be a part of the body, old western germanic/north sea germanic, is the basis of english, so it should be the whole torso, not latin!)

hemidemisemiquaver — a 64th note, in other words, a half of a half of a half of an eighth note,


deriving from 'half' from 3 different languages, hemi-greek, semi-latin, demi-french


if ever there were a mongrel language it is this one RIGHT HERE
