Etcetera - or "and the others" in English, rather than the early Italian that my school force-fed us between the ages of 12 and 16. With a motto of "Olim Meminisse Juvabit", the four centuries old establishment had shamelessly stolen a line from Virgil, and was determined to ensure the continuation of his original language. ;)))

Tensiometer - an instrument for direct measurement of the tension in cables, guy ropes, hawsers, etc., where the value actually matters on safety grounds. For musical instruments like pianos, harps, guitars, violins, etc., the string tensions are assessed indirectly, by tuning the sounds made by their lateral vibrations.
