Music to My Ears: The Fascinating World of Altos

What is the meaning of the word "alto" in English?

A.) Sad

B.) Short

C.) Fat

D.) Happy

Answer:

B.) Short

In this context, the word "alto" does not refer to the musical term for a range of voice or instrument, but rather its translation to English. The correct meaning of "alto" in English is "high" or "tall." The opposite of "alto" would be "bajo," which means "low" or "short."

So, the correct answer to the question is B.) Short. "Bajo" is the opposite of "alto" and means "short" or "low" in English.
