Hi Federico and Davide, In English we use the Italian work portamento when singers or players want to scoop between notes.
Aren't "doit" and "fall" forms of portamento without a define start/end note? "Doit" (pron do-it) is a portamento up to the notated pitch, "Fall" is a portamento down from the notated pitch (hence "falling" off the note.
