- 1響板（西班牙舞常用）
Castanets are a small instrument you play with your hands: two hard, shell-shaped pieces of wood or plastic that you click together. Dancers, especially in Spanish , often play a pair in each hand. The sound is sharp and dry. The player loops them over the thumb and flicks them with the fingers; it is harder than it looks. Orchestras also use them when a piece wants a Spanish colour. They are not shakers, and they are not spoons at the table — though the motion is a bit like clicking spoons. English usually keeps the word in the plural, like scissors.
組成English took it from Spanish castañetas (also castañuelas), from castaña, “chestnut” — the two shells are about that size and shape. The English word does not split into English pieces.
