Question for music people

What is a "Stuccatto" in terms of a guitar technique? I've searched high and low on google and come up with nothing but archaic definitions for thrusting with swords and other nonrelated nonsense.

its spelled wrong lol. i think its "staccato". its basically an adjective that describes the way to play the notes. to play staccato, all the notes would be short and brief, and it would sound very choppy.

u dont necessarily have to play fast, its just you stop the note immediately once you play it.

thats the best way i can describe it, hope it helps. (i myself play guitar, quite a bit, just dont have infinite knowledge on the terminology lol)

if u have any more questions, ask in this thread, cuz im a noob and dont know how to do the personal message thing or w.e.
