Dotted note
01
puntong nota
a musical note with a dot placed to the right of it, which increases its duration by half, indicating that it should be held longer than a regular note of the same value
What is a "dotted note"?
A dotted note is a musical symbol where a dot is placed directly after the notehead. This dot increases the duration of the note by half of its original value. For example, a dotted quarter note lasts for one and a half beats, as the dot adds half of the value of a quarter note, which is one beat, to the note's length. Dotted notes help create longer and more varied rhythmic patterns, providing more flexibility in musical timing.
