Hi,
I agree with you, Han-Wen, I was just writing the same.
In any case, my explanation about "tenuto" was mainly referred to the "tenuto"
sign, not only the meaning of the word in italian or in music notation.
I tried to find a general definition, and I think that "hold the note for
its entire duration" is pretty good.
The only problem can be inside piano music, where is not so easy to define
"legato" in the same way like for winds or strings, in which you can play
more notes in the same breath or bow without repeating the attack.
Anyway, there is an interesting links with explanation/translation of many
italian words-expression:
