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!
