tochata -ae f. Note der Choralnotation in Form einer beidseitig nach unten gestielten Brevis unbekannter Bedeutung — note in notation of chant of uncertain meaning, with the form of a brevis with downward stems on both sides [s.XV] LmLFlor. Fax. 1, 15, 1: De modo figurandi notulas. Omnis peritus scriptor has notulas modernae institutionis figurandas hoc pacto notet, quarum nomina periti sic vocitari dixerunt, id est primam , longam , brevem , correptam , alpham , tochatam , unchatam , finalem . Quae sub his syllabae collocari debent, Abbatem audiamus: „Duae primae syllabam longam recipient, tertia vero brevem; quarta vero nec syllabam recipit, nec sola esse potest, sed bis duplicata. Quinta in principio capit syllabam tantum; sexta et septima dipthongon sonat, octava vel novissima completam sententiam finit.“ cf. Blackburn/Holford-Strevens, Florentius p. 275 n. 197 v. tocus
