Best Answer

You are most likely referring to a quarter rest, which means to stop playing for the time assigned to a quarter in the given time signature. If it is a really long squiggly line then you might be looking at a glissando, which basically means to glide from the top note to the bottom note indicated by the mark.

When do you have a redgreen squiggly line under your word what does it mean?

A number of computer programs and phone apps have built in spell-checkers. If the word you have used is not one which the computer/phone recognizes, it marks it with a squiggly red line. This does not necessarily mean that you have spelled the word wrong: it could be a proper noun, or a slang word, or a spelling which is not used by the geek who created the program. The squiggly line is only an alert; you must decide if the word actually needs changing.
