What does SEGNO mean in Scrabble?
noun
music
A musical sign marking a point in a score to which a performer returns or from which a repeated passage begins.
Composers place a segno, a small symbol resembling an S crossed by a diagonal line, at the spot in a score where a repeat should begin or end. The instruction dal segno tells a performer to go back to that mark and play from there again, while al segno tells the player to continue only up to it. Musicians rely on the segno to shorten printed scores, avoiding the need to write out repeated sections in full. The Italian word segno simply means sign, and it entered musical notation together with related terms such as coda.
How SEGNO is used
