	I've tried to anticipate alternate names (and several are accepted already). If you think I've missed one, don't hesitate to suggest it so that it can be added. Thanks!

	Great sequel to the first one. Much more challenging. Nice job.

	@gwukelic: I couldn't have said it any better. Anyway, the ^ symbol, in classical guitar music, can also be apoyando (rest stroke).

	Thanks, MorningBell411, I'll add that. My music background (all amateur, I assure you) is in voice and piano so I thought there might be some guitar nomenclature that I missed.

	Please accept 'dotted crotchet' for the dotted note as well as dotted quarter, thanks :)

	@ThatStartGirl- Consider it done.

	for number 7 I wrote 'drag triplet' as the picture you have notates not a normal triplet (three notes over one beat) but a drag triplet (three notes over 2 beats) Then for number 14 I wrote 'caret' because that is the name of the symbol (http://www.dolmetsch.com/musicalsymbols.htm) other than those two, it was a good quiz!

	Good eye, dyoder220- I'll make those changes.

	Please accept "cut common" or "cut common time" for what you call "cut time". It would be nice if "comma" was accepted for the breath mark, as that is what they are often referred to as, but maybe that would be too easy. Also your "marcato" is technically martel(l)ato.

	jonathan_elliott:	Mar 23rd, 2011 at 23:54 GMT	1 point
	Oh, one more thing: it should be "dal segno", not "del segno".

	hoberwafin:	Mar 28th, 2011 at 02:17 GMT	1 point
	in my band class, we call those marcato thingys rooftop or housetop accents. I know it's not the technical term, but it would be nice if you'd accept them

	UncleBruce:	May 11th, 2011 at 13:01 GMT	1 point
	I agree, it should be dal segno. As well, marcato is technically incorrect, as it is more of a description of how you should play the music as opposed the sign. The sign is martellato. And possibly consider allowing just gliss for glissando. But otherwise, a very fun quiz! Much more challenging than the other musical symbols quiz. Excellent job!

	wonderful! I got over half and learned something in the process! Thanks for accepting alto clef! Notation Nation rocks! :) 5/5!

	Please accept 'breath' for 'breath mark' as well as 'cut common time' for 'cut time'.

	As a pianist, I have encountered all of these and know what they all mean, but since I haven't done theory since grade 3 I didn't know what they were all called, so thanks for teaching me something :)
