Inspired of faq #79, courtesy of NWA. Thanks for their kind support!

For spanish names (español nombres), please see user tip #120. ¡Gracias Ramón Pajares Box!

In NWC British French

whole semibreve ronde

half minim blanche

quarter crotchet noire

eighth quaver croche

sixteenth semiquaver double-croche

thirty-second demisemiquaver triple croche

sixty-fourth hemidemisemiquaver quadruple croche

And for the rests ("silences") versus notes? Here it is:-

In NWC French

whole rest pause

half rest demi-pause

quarter rest soupir

eighth rest demi-soupir

sixteenth rest quart de soupir

thirty-second rest huitième de soupir

sixty-fourth rest seizième de soupir

Hope this helps! (En espérant que cela vous aide !)
All remark will be appreciated. Toute remarque est bienvenue.

Not a comment on the post, which is terrific, but on the !tabulardata thingie. Nice! Take a bow, NoteWorthy Support. (Feel free to zap this comment, Dominique.)
