To verify whether the given expressions are correct, we will need to evaluate the specific context and purpose of the activity you are describing. However, the expressions look feasible for a chant activity.
Now, let's discuss the difference between a "chant" and a "song":
1. Chant: A chant is a rhythmic and repetitive vocalization often associated with rituals, ceremonies, or spiritual practices. Chants usually involve short phrases or words repeated in a simple melodic pattern without a distinct melody. Chants are commonly used for focus, meditation, or creating an atmosphere.
2. Song: A song, on the other hand, is a composition that combines both music and lyrics arranged in a more structured and melodic manner. Songs often have verses, choruses, and a musical accompaniment. They are usually created for entertainment or storytelling purposes and evoke emotions through melody, harmony, and lyrics.
In summary, chants are typically characterized by repetitive vocalizations without a complex melody, while songs involve more structured compositions with melodies, harmonies, and lyrics.
