So they'd be going along in this fashion let's say it's duple- one-two, two-two, three-two, four-two.

We were talking about the subdivision of that pulse, the organizing of that pulse into meters, and that we had this capacity to indicate what the meter was by these numbers: two-four, and three-four for duple and triple meter.

我们还讲到律动的进一步划分,将律动组织成拍子,与此同时我们能够用一些数字,来表示不同的拍子,比如,用二四拍和三四拍表示二拍子和三拍子

是什么呢,我们用另一种方式来想,这个,你们知道二拍子,有很强的鼓点,对吧,强,弱,强,弱,强,弱,强,弱,那在这种情况下如果我们拿一段三拍子,那就会是,强,弱,弱,强,弱,弱
