Since most of us is thrown all over the world, I just had an idea that it could be fun to share the names of most popular guitar terms written in Your native language
![]() Lick = Zagrywka Chord = Akord Scale = Skala Fret = Próg Pickup = Przetwornik Bridge = Mostek Palm Muting = Tłumienie dłonią Finger = Palec Bar = Takt Note = Nuta Alternate Picking = Kostkowanie naprzemienne I just wonder how those sound / are written in Your language ![]() |

Heh, excellent thread, Darius. Some of the older guitarists in Poland call tapping technique - "dzięcioły"
dzięcioł = woodpecker ![]() This post has been edited by Piotr Kaczor: May 22 2013, 08:34 PM |

Here's the deal in Romanian
![]() Lick = Fraza Chord = Acord Scale = Gama Fret = Tasta Pickup = Doza Bridge = Punte Palm Muting = A palma Finger = Deget Bar = Masura Note = Nota Alternate Picking = Panatie alternata I'd also add: 16th notes = Saisprezecimi or 'maruntele' which literally means 'little ones' ![]() ![]() Dive bomb = 'Fluierata' - another term which was used by the guys which grew in the 70-80s. It means 'a whistled one' |

So many germans on the forum, and I am the one who has to answer this? Oh well...
My fellow countrymen, feel free to correct me: Lick = Lick (we stick to the english term here) Chord = Akkord Scale = Skala Fret = Bund Pickup = Tonabnehmer Bridge = Brücke Palm Muting = abdämpfen or abgedämpft spielen Finger = Finger Bar = Takt Note = Note Alternate Picking = schneller Wechselschlag (had to look that one up, mostly we also refer to the english term) -------------------- |

So, in English they would be:-
Lick = What a Cat or Dog does to you. Chord = The noise you make when you hit 3 or more strings at the same time. Scale = The white stuff in the bottom of my kettle. Fret = What I do when I get letters from the Taxman. Pickup = What I try to do on a Friday Night!! Bridge = A completely non-sensical Card Game. Palm Muting = Noise reduction for Coconut Trees. Finger = What bad criminals do when they grass on each other. Bar = The place to go to pickup. Note = What I get from the Doctor to get me off work. Alternate Picking = Ambidextrous pickpocket!!! ![]() ![]() So many germans on the forum, and I am the one who has to answer this? Oh well...
