https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.19/Documentation/notation/predefined-type-predicates.it.html ... I have been misled by the term "rational". In fact, in the italian language the term "rational" (---> razionale) means an irreducible fraction of two coprime integers, while in the english language it means a number that can be expressed as the quotient or fraction p/q of two integers. For example, "2/4" is not rational in italian, but it is rational in english. Then I did not even consider that predicate. I suggest the italian maintainer of the translation to keep note of this ambiguity. Best, P > -- Aaron Hill > >
