So you are really two countries separated by a common language... How
do Canadians, New Zealanders and other natives manage in between? I
think that for us non-natives, "fourth" is logically easier than
"crochet", though crochet and quaver sound nice. Like the French
"soupir" for a rest.
It gets worse :-) What the Americans call a full note, the English call
a semi-breve (literally, a "half-note") :-)
So an American quarter-note is actually an eighth-note. :-)
Cheers,
