There could be many answers, but I choose the word, "key". A Key signature is placed beside the clef signs in any piece of music.
The word is CLEF. Trombone music is typically written in bass clef. However, music can be found written in tenor and alto clef. Occassionally, treble clef is used.In many older, classical pieces there were three parts written: alto, tenor, and bass. The alto trombone played in alto clef, tenor in tenor clef, and bass in bass clef. Most modern music is written in bass clef.
G clef
The lines (from top to bottom) on the treble stave are E G B D F The spaces are... F A C E
for spaces remember the word FACE for lines remember the word GBDF (green bus drives forward) thats how i remember it anyway thats for the notes inside the lines not above or below
Mnemonics are sentences that are created as memory devices. Usually the first letter of each word stands for a word to be remembered.
ClefThe sign placed at the beginning of a staff to denote the pitch of one (and hence others) of its lines or spaces. They were first systematically used in 11th-century liturgical manuscripts. Letters denoting F and c were the most common; the gcame increasingly into use in the 15th century. The F and g clefs have come to be known as the 'bass clef' and 'treble clef' respectively, in their normal situations on the fourth line up (for the bass) and the second line up (for the treble); the c clef, according to its placing, may be called the soprano clef (on the bottom line), or moving upwards, the mezzo-soprano, the alto, the tenor and the baritone.Bass ClefA symbol indicating that the fourth line from the bottom of a staff represents the pitch of F below middle C. Also called F clef.treble clefA symbol indicating that the second line from the bottom of a staff represents the pitch of G above middle C. Also called G clef.NoteThe word "clef" comes from the French word for "key," derived from Middle French.

The word 'clef' literally means 'key'. It is a character or symbol which is placed in a specific position at the beginning of a stave of music. Its position on the stave fixes the pitch of the note which the clef represents. The two most common clefs are the treble or G clef, which indicates the pitch of the note G and is typically used for the right hand in keyboard music, and the bass or F clef, which indicates the pitch of the note F and is typically used for the left hand in keyboard music.
I'll get to the thing in a moment. First, something about the word.Speaking of musical notation, the singular word is usually "staff"; the plural can be "staffs" or "staves." "Stave," however, is the word for a wooden strip that is one piece of a barrel.A staff, or possibly stave, in music is a series of (usually five) parallel lines on which you write notes. The treble (as opposed to bass) staff has a treble clef and is for (1) high-pitched instruments or (2) voices of most women singers.
The lines of the treble clef, from bottom to top: EGBDF. The spaces from bottom to top are FACE.(FACE is an actual word, so it's easy to remember; the mnemonic for the lines is Every Good Boy Does Fine.)The lines of the bass clef, from bottom to top, are GBDFA. The spaces (bottom to top) are ACEG.(The mnemonic for the lines is Good Boys Do Fine Always; I'm not aware of a mnemonic for the spaces, but it's pretty easy to figure out.)
The origin of the word is related to the number three (compare "triple" and "tricycle"). Most choral music these days is arranged with the melody in the soprano part. It used to be (and in some circumstances still is) that tenor sang the melody and so was considered the "first" part; above the melody would be the second (alto) and third (soprano) parts. So sopranos sing in the treble clef.
not entirely sure what you mean, i think you mean how do you get chord names, i.e C, onto a stave? it depends what clef you use, on the G Clef, a C is the 3rd gap from the bottom. on the bass clef (F Clef), a C would be the second gap from the bottom. a good way of remembering notes on the different staves is - G Clef - F A C E the music (the notes F, A, C, E go in the gaps) Bass Clef - All Cows Eat Grass ( the notes A, C, E, G go in the gaps)
