		The metal plate must be protected from overall mordent action, and is therefore covered with an acid-resist or ground which is sufficiently ductile to allow drawing and to expose the metal under the artist’s traces, while being resistant to the mordent.
		This mordent is slow but remains closest to the etcher’s traces and gives excellent results for aquatint and fine textures.
		Another oft-employed mordent on copper plates is iron perchloride, a nontoxic salt which does not cause fumes or burns but does leave aggressive stains.

	Ornaments
		The mordent is thought of as a rapid single alternation between an indicated note, the note above (called the upper mordent, inverted mordent, or pralltriller) or below (called the lower mordent or mordent), and the indicated note again.
		In the Baroque period, a Mordant (the German equivalent of mordent) was what later came to be called an inverted mordent and what is now often called a lower mordent.
		Mordents of all sorts might typically, in some periods, begin with an extra inessential note (the lesser, added note), rather than with the principal note as shown in the examples here.

		The same applies to two subsequent inverted mordents (see bars 2, 3); if both of them are played in the initial entry of the main theme, there is no musical reason why they should be omitted later.
		In the lower-voice line accompanying this motive, ornaments may or may not be adjusted to highlight the sequence; thus the inverted mordent in bar 6 might be displaced from beat 2 to beat 3, as suggested also in bar 44.
		In bars 17-23, ornamentation in the three-part imitation is consistent apart from the additional inverted mordent on the ending-note in L: bar 23; the brackets already suggest that there were second thoughts, and omitting it is certainly conducive to the clarity of the structure.

	Piano Forums at Piano World: Hi everyone, question on Chopin "Minute" if you have a minute.
		The little lighting thing is called a mordent, and it is just a very short trill.
		So on that first one there, where you have the mordent over the Eb, you play very quickly Eb F Eb.
		Older pianists (like myself) tend to regard the mordent as the ornament that dips down and is indicated with the short trill squiggly with a vertical line through it.
