Notesetting
Does everybody agree that this is the correct
term? I think the publisher will like it, too,
since it is actually the direct translation of
the German word "Notensatz".
yes, but i also agree that Engraving could be
used. words don't always become obsolete when
the manner of their use or their relation to the
context changes.
eg.
- char (fr. [québec]), from chariot (old french),
used today for "car". Y'où c'que j'ai parké le
char, ostie?
- piasse (fr. [québec]), from piastre (old
french, monetary value), used today for "buck"
(coll.). Donne-moi une piasse, mon ostie.
not that these examples will serve your argument
with the publisher, but they're fun. it's always
amusing to show french people who ridicule
québecois that there are old french words used in
québec that the french don't even understand.
