know about other countries) have differences
in terminology for note values:

Don't know what a 64th note is

It's a hemidemisemiquaver! My dad got me a pocket music dictionary when I
was about 8 years old. In 1963. I still have it - Elson's Pocket Music
Dictionary.

Or, you can say "ton", so 'helton', etc.
