What's a semiquaver?

I think Brussel Sprouts are evil too.

And what Kimmer said - what's a semiquaver?

I don't know what you call them.

In English English a crotchet is the standard unit of music. Two quavers (actually, I think you call them half notes) are one crotchet, and four semi quavers (quarter notes? are one crotchet.

Then it gets silly with demisemi quavers and hemidemisemiquavers......
