6.1.5 Note names in other languages

There are predefined sets of note names for various other languages. To use them, include the language specific init file. For example, add \include "english.ly" to the top of the input file. The available language files and the note names they define are

Note that in Dutch, German, Norwegian, and Swedish, the flat alterations of `a' like for example aes and aeses are usually contracted to as and ases (or more commonly asas). Sometimes only these contracted names are defined in the corresponding language files (this also applies to the suffixes for quartertones below).

Some music uses microtones whose alterations are fractions of a ‘regular’ sharp or flat. The note names for quartertones defined in the various language files are listed in the following table. Here the prefixes ‘semi-’ and ‘sesqui-’ mean ‘half’ and ‘one and a half’, respectively. For Norwegian, Swedish, Catalan and Spanish no special names have been defined yet.

                        Note Names             semi-   semi-  sesqui-  sesqui-
                                               sharp   flat    sharp    flat
