喜樂美語
  1. 1合唱的

    Choral means “of a choir”: music meant to be sung by a large group of people together, not by one singer alone. So you get choral music, a choral concert, a choral society. It is an adjective, a little formal — the word on a programme more than in the playground. Teachers, churches, and concert notes use it. It is not coral the sea creature, and it is not , which is a noun for a kind of church song. Same neighbourhood of sound; different jobs.

From the word’s history
