Our "notes" are do re mi fa sol la si do.
and our "Notes" are do re mi fa sol la ti do!
(from Do a Deer, a song from the musical "The Sound of Music" about the Von Trapp Family singers, based on Maria Von Trapps book. the word in bold is close to how we say the names of the notes.
Do, a deer, female deer doe
Re, a drop of golden sun ray
Mi, a name i call myself me
Fa, a long long way to run fa(r)-the r is not voiced
sol, a needle pulling thread sew-the l of sol is not voiced
La, a note to follow sol, la
Ti, a drink with jam and bread tea
that will bring us back to do!
