<h3 class="section">1.205 note value</h3>
<p>ES: valor (duración),
I: valore, durata,
F: durée, valeur (d'une note),
D: Notenwert,
NL: nootwaarde,
DK nodeværdi,
S: notvärde,
FI: nuotin aika-arvo.
<p>Note values (durations) are measured as fractions, normally 1/2, of
the next higher note value. The longest duration normally used is
called <em>brevis</em>, but sometimes (mostly in pre-baroque music) the
double-length note value <em>longa</em> or the quadruple-length note
value <em>maxima</em> are used.
<!-- TODO - add maxima to this example, in a way that doesn't break it. -->

</p>
<p>An augmentation dot after a note multiplies the duration by one and a
half. Another dot adds yet a fourth of the duration.

</p>
<p>Alternatively note values may be subdivided by other ratios. Most common is
subdivision by <!-- /@w -->3 (<em>triplets</em>) and <!-- /@w -->5 (<em>quintuplets</em>).
Subdivisions by <!-- /@w -->2 (<em>duplets</em>) or <!-- /@w -->4 (<em>quadruplets</em>) of
dotted notes are also frequently used.
