I'm curious to know which terminology is used in Canada. Does it match the United States or Britain?
We use half, quarter, etc., but will stoop to crotchets if obliged to work with

This is not the only area where different systems exist, of course. My wife is well trained in Kodaly methodology and uses movable Do in the classroom, but she's had at least a couple of students who grew up in places where fixed Do was taught--one from Argentina, I think, and another from Israel. Once she figures out the reason for the communication problem, she can speak their language and translate for them.
