These terms aren't familiar to me, but if I were to guess I would say they refer to trills and vibrato.

.... thanks, thanks a lot. You have single-handedly caused my wife to second guess our matrimonial arrangement.maw wrote:I heard that it was what the pretty woman got after you asked them out to dinnerJoseph E.

I've seen the term shiver in the Seamus Ennis tutor. It's described as being like a E cran but using only a G, i.e. an long E with a series of G 'cuts' or grace notes on the beat.
I've seen a couple things described as a shake. One a C# D C D trill, see http://www.greylarsen.com/services/tune ... system.pdf and any trill with an interval larger than a tone.
Hope this helps

The best tutor for explaining terms like these is Denis Brook's UP Tutor, available from the Seattle Pipers' Club: http://www.irishpipersclub.org/

I would consider them to be the same thing: a short trill or rapid repitition of cuts on the same note, depending on how you look at it.
To my ears they sound best on F# in either octave and E in the second. The G is used to ornament either note, a single finger is used on the E.
I like the sound of 3 cuts, very fast.
Although 2 cuts can be good, in the right place.

I always thought it was what you hear on the E here in Sixpenny Money:

But maybe that's something else?
