Talk:Bow

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I don't want to make a big deal out of this (because it really isn't a big deal), but the reason we had "When used on its own in the context of music, the word bow refers to a device pulled across the strings of a string instrument in order to make them vibrate" is because in the section above a different use of the word "bow" in music is described - there's an article on this, different, type of bow at musical bow. However, as the sentence said, when the word "bow" is used on its own in music, it refers to this thing you drag across strings (the other type of bow usually being called a "musical bow"). --Camembert

I thought the 'bow (knot)' link went to a page about the knot, not about some rosette...you know, the knot used in tying shoelaces, the bows tied in hair and on ballgowns and Japanese uniforms? Lady BlahDeBlah 02:50, 5 February 2006 (UTC)
