1 The IPA has often been used as a basis for creating new writing systems for previously unwritten languages. 2  The IPA is used in some foreign language text books and phrase books to transcribe the sounds of languages which are written with non-latin alphabets.
Staccato is marked in music with a small black dot placed above or below a note (not to its side like a dotted note). See staccatissimo. Also Known As: 1  detache; dÃ©tachÃ© (Pique).  piquÃ© fr
It is also unanswerable. The Staccato simply means shortened or detached in Italian, whether in every day speech or musical terminology. Spiccato is a type of bow execution of staccato notes in string playing. Spiccato strokes are bounced off or lifted from the string. Ultimately they are simply non-legato as are all other means of stopping the connection between notes. There is no specific notational symbol to differentiate spiccato from staccato. Whether the performer plays a staccato which leaves the bow on the string or a spiccato which bounces is a choice which he determines by style and tempo of the music; musical context and intention; and personal taste and experience.
