English translation for "punctum"

n. punctum

Example Sentences:

	1.	Some of these conventions include the introduction of punctuation and the substitutions of symbols. Dans la plupart des cas, d'autres éléments remplacent ces punctum et la virga.
	2.	The basic notation of the virga and the punctum remained the symbols for individual notes, but other neumes soon developed which showed several notes joined together. La notation de base de la virga et du punctum resteront le symbole de notation des notes individuelles mais d'autres neumes apparaissent bientôt qui montrent plusieurs notes unies ensemble.
	3.	These neumes eventually evolved into the basic symbols for neumatic notation, the virga (or "rod") which indicates a higher note and still looked like the acutus from which it came; and the punctum (or "dot") which indicates a lower note and, as the name suggests, reduced the gravis symbol to a point. Ces deux signes ont évolué pour devenir les signes de base de la notation neumatic, la virga (barre) qui indique une note plus haute et qui ressemble encore à acutus dont elle provient et le punctum (point) qui indique une note plus basse et, comme son nom l'indique, réduit le symbole gravis à un point.
