F-sharp

F
'das F' and 'das Fis' both belong to music and refer to notes. The important difference is the pitch: 'das F' is a specific basic note, while 'das Fis' is a semitone higher. On the piano, 'Fis' is the black key directly to the right of 'F'. The words are easy to confuse because they look and sound similar. But to be precise: 'Fis' is not just another word for 'F', but a different note.
