how do we do half and whole notes?
My original idea was that you would define up front what, e.g., do meant. I could be a half note if that's the longest note in the piece or a whole note. If that's too erratic we could tie quarter notes but Dub's suggestion sounds good, too.

sorry, WW! you're right! maybe Bill can Tell me later what the other one is...  I like the underscore idea, but they both make sense. the upfront definition idea(we need a name for it) would be easier to type, I would think. probably would need a time sig at the beginning too, or is that part of the fun? I probably should study up on my quaver terminology, too, eh? seeing as this is an international crowd...

PS I have a hard time recasting the longer symbol as the shorter note (soll vs solll).
We need something less counterintuitive. Maybe a . as a time filler ?
sol sol sol . sol sol sol . sol sol sol . Do . sol . Do . sol . Do . sol . fa . mi(flat)* . re . do
edited for ?clarity?:
solsolsol . solsolsol . solsolsol . Do . sol . Do . sol . Do . sol . fa . mi(flat)* . re . do
* (How _do_ you indicate accidentals in solfeggio, anyway?)

or perhaps the . indicate length: each . indicates an eighth note? notes immediately following a . indicate a dotted rhythm?

haha! well, I don't think we're trying to find a way to score entire symphonies! for flats and sharps in solfege, my understanding of it is they go to a(h) or e(h); such as mi flat is ma(h), and ti flat is ta(h). la flat would be te(h). sharps go up to i. so la sharp is li, etc. please correct me if I'm wrong, this is new ground for me as well! my middleschoolers do ok with major scales, but it gets crazy once we go beyond that. I know, I know, I've got work to do...

...sharps go up to i. so la sharp is li, etc...'cept it's pronounced "lee" (just like "mi" and "ti"). In solfege, the upper and lower adjacent 1/2 steps being variants of the major scale dependent on direction (as etaoin described) embed an unnecessary if not overweighted advantage to western harmony into the ears of the trainee... ... but, then again, that might be one's goal.
