Final answer:

Staccato in music represents shortening a note by half, creating a distinct and sharp sound.


Explanation:

Staccato in music represents shortening a note by half. It means the notes are played or sung distinctly separate from each other, giving a sharp, abrupt sound.

For example, in a piece of music, if you see notes with dots above or below them, it indicates that those notes should be performed staccato.

Staccato creates a contrasting effect when compared to legato, where notes are smoothly connected.
