corrette

Corrette is the feminine plural form of the Italian adjective corretto, meaning correct or proper. In Italian grammar, corretto modifies feminine plural nouns, for example istruzioni corrette (correct instructions). Beyond its linguistic use, Corrette is also a surname of French origin.

The most notable bearer of the name is Michel Corrette, an 18th-century French organist and composer who published extensively for organ, harpsichord, and violin, and who contributed to keyboard pedagogy with instructional works. The surname remains relatively uncommon and is largely encountered in France and among French-speaking communities.

In modern usage, Corrette primarily appears as a proper noun rather than a common noun. Its meaning as a word related to correctness is usually understood within Italian language contexts, while as a surname it is recognized in historical and musical references.
