AaSpelling
cre·scen·do
Spelling and pronunciation: cre-scen-do, with -scen- pronounced /ʃen/, from Italian (not 'cresendo' or 'creshendo').
Spelling और pronunciation में cre-scen-do, बीच में -scen-, ध्वनि /ʃen/, Italian से ('cresendo' या 'creshendo' गलत है)।
§Grammar and usage
Note: careful writers use crescendo for the gradual increase, not just the peak; 'reach a crescendo' is common but 'rise to a climax' is stricter.
ध्यान रखिए: सावधान लेखक crescendo को क्रमिक वृद्धि के लिए प्रयोग करते हैं, केवल चरम के लिए नहीं; 'reach a crescendo' आम है पर 'rise to a climax' अधिक शुद्ध है।
