Use the noun notation to describe a written note, like the comments an English teacher makes in the margins of a student's essay.
An editor might make notations on an article, and a conductor might add notations — written reminders to herself — to the edges of a musical score. Another kind of notation is a series of symbols that represent words, numbers, or music, for example. Chemical formulas are one type of notation, and musical notes are another. Notation comes from the Latin word notationem, which means "a marking or an explanation," from the root nota, "mark."
WORD FAMILY
notation: notations+/notate: notated, notates, notating, notation
