What is another word for sharps flat?
Pronunciation: [ʃˈɑːps flˈat] (IPA) 
Sharps flat is a term used in music theory to represent notes that have been altered by either raising or lowering them by a semitone. Synonyms for this term include accidentals, chromatic alterations, and enharmonic notes. Accidentals are symbols that are placed before a note to indicate that it should be changed by either a sharp or a flat. Chromatic alterations, on the other hand, refer to notes that are not part of the original key signature, and they can be altered using either sharps or flats. Enharmonic notes are simply two notes with different names that sound the same. In summary, all these synonyms refer to the same concept in music theory: notes that have been altered by one semitone.
