I always got a woody from "diminished triad" and go even further adding a fermented demented 7th.

However what gets my goat is when someone says "timbre"... I want to beat them about the face and neck and yell... "why can't you just say TONE like a normal human being?!!!!?!"

Most musicians are not "normal human beings".

I could not agree more with that sentiment however at least in my experience it is not musicians that use the term "timbre" (and I want to slap them extra hard when they pronounce it as "tamber")...but these gosh darned audiophile "hobbyists" that think unless you can hear the squeak of the bass drum pedal in the recording.. it is garbage.

When I hear someone say "timbre" I always think...

scherzo (“joke, play”), from scherzare (“to joke, jest”)
