And then in English we get thoroughly confused, because an American
whole note is an English semibreve or, literally, "half note". And we
don't use numbers either, we have semibreve, minim, crotchet, quaver,
semiquaver, demisemiquaver, hemidemisemiquaver, dunno what the next one
is. And those last three are a half note, half a half note, and half a
half a half note! :-)
At the end of the day, Vive La Difference!
