        Fun and educational again, thank you!
        In 6A does "quietly" signify "P" somehow?
        • Melanie Branton constructor · 2025-03-01T08:03:01.221Z
          Yes! It's from musical notation. P (which stands for PIANO in Italian) = quiet/quietly, PP (pianissimo) = very quiet/very quietly, F (which stands for FORTE in Italian) = loud/loudly, FF (fortissimo) = very loud/very loudly.

            Ah! Of course. (In my very limited time playing the trumpet, I didn't have much occasion for p! But our son definitely sees these playing the piano 🎹 so I should have put two and two together.) Thank you!
