one fifteenth as a fraction
One part when something is cut into 15 equal parts.
Corak penggunaan:
a fifteenth of [something]
Kesilapan biasa:
Learners often avoid using *a fifteenth* and instead say *one over fifteen* or *one divided by fifteen*. While these are understandable, *one fifteenth* or *a fifteenth* is the natural fractional form in everyday English.
Sinonim
one fifteenth (More explicit fractional form, often clearer in speech and writing than the shorter *a fifteenth*.)
Antonim
the whole (Represents the complete amount, as opposed to just one small fractional part.)

two-octave musical interval
In music, a sound or note that is two octaves higher than the written note, often made by a special organ stop.
Corak penggunaan:
play at the fifteenth [on an organ]
Kesilapan biasa:
Learners may think *fifteenth* in this context means the fifteenth note in a scale, but in music it refers to an interval of two octaves or an organ stop at that pitch.
Sinonim
double octave (General musical term for an interval of two octaves; lacks the specific association with organ stops that *fifteenth* has.)
Antonim
unison (Indicates no pitch distance between notes, contrasting with the wide two-octave distance of a fifteenth.)
