2. Foreign Terms Exercises and Quiz

Grade Five

Lesson 2: Musical Terms Exercises & Quiz!

On this page you will find the terms grouped together. They are grouped by type and by language.

The types are dynamics, tempo, articulation (attack), expression and "other". The words in the "other" group are mostly "grammatical" words, like "not", "very", "less" and so on. Grammatical words are usually used with words from the other groups; in a direction like "allegro assai", "allegro" means fast, so it's in the "tempo" group, but "assai" means very, so it is in the "other" group.

Most terms are Italian, but there are also some French and German terms too. Each group has around 12-15 words in it.

Try learning a group at a time. (There are too many words to try to memorize them all in one go!) Test yourself by pointing the mouse at the English translations - they will disappear until you move the mouse away again.

If you prefer, you can see the whole list of terms arranged alphabetically here.

Go to the bottom of the page for a fun quiz to see how many terms you know!
