休息, 沉默
a period of silence or the sign that indicates a silence between musical notes
A rest is a musical symbol that indicates a period of silence in the music. It shows where the performer should pause and not play any notes. Each rest symbol represents a specific duration of silence, similar to how notes represent different lengths of sound. For example, a whole rest lasts as long as a whole note, while a quarter rest lasts as long as a quarter note. Rests help to structure the rhythm and timing of the music, giving it balance and variety.
