n.
  1. 1.

    In Ancient Greek musical theory, the higher-pitched of the two movable notes in the farther tetrachord on a lyre, pitched higher than the trite and lower than the nete.

词源

Unadapted borrowing from Latin paranētē, from Ancient Greek παρανήτη (paranḗtē, literally “next to the lowest [string]”). The nete was "lowest" in the sense of being the farthest from the player and physically below the other strings, but was the highest in pitch. Compare the high E string in a modern guitar, which is farthest from the player.
