Relating to or characterized by singing or the quality of being suited for singing.
Derived from Latin 'cantare' (to sing) plus the adjective suffix '-ive,' meaning 'tending to' or 'characterized by.' This formed adjectives describing vocal qualities.
Some voices are 'cantative'—they're built for singing, with natural beauty and strength. It's a beautiful but almost-forgotten word that singers and voice teachers should probably use more often!
