Definition: A syllable attached to the first tone of the major diatonic
scale for the purpose of solmization, or solfeggio. It is the first of
the seven syllables used by the Italians as manes of musical tones, and
replaced, for the sake of euphony, the syllable Ut, applied to the note
C. In England and America the same syllables are used by mane as a
scale pattern, while the tones in respect to absolute pitch are named
from the first seven letters of the alphabet.
