Etymology

edit

From English pitch.

Pronunciation

edit
  • IPA(key): [ˈpitt͡ʃo]
  • Audio:(file)
  • Rhymes: -itt͡ʃo
  • Hyphenation: pit‧ĉo
  • Both the t and ĉ in words such as this are pronounced.[1] Though the simpler alternative piĉo does also exist, it may be avoided due to its vulgar additional sense of 'cunt'.

Noun

edit

pitĉo (accusative singular pitĉon, plural pitĉoj, accusative plural pitĉojn)

  1. (music) pitch
    Synonym: tonalto
