And the swedish name for 128th would be
hundratjugoåttondel
and 256th
tvåhundrafemtiosjättedel
Right, so similarly to Danish, for example, words for the corresponding
note and
rest is:
128th rest: hundratjugoåttondelspaus
128th note: hundratjugoåttondelsnot
256th rest: tvåhundrafemtiosjättedelspaus
256th note: tvåhundrafemtiosjättedelsnot
For the question about playing in a different octave, the verb is
"oktavera" in Swedish. I'm not sure how I would express myself
if I wanted a music typesetter to use a "ottava bracket" in the notation.

Common as in:
* "Any Finnish person would understand immediately"? or
* "Any Finnish _musician_ would understand immediately"?
I'm aiming for the second case -- a "musically correct" name, but
if the
"Finn on the street" can puzzle it out as a special use of ordinal
numbers
(which is how it looks to me, but that's only a guess because I
don't speak
Finnish), so much the better.

Odd ... they're in the table under "Duration names notes and
rests", but not
under the individual entry in the Glossary.
It looks like I have more cleanup to do.
Thanks!
