choruses
Songs' repeated parts
Choruses is the plural of chorus.
A chorus is a group singing together, or the refrain of a song that repeats between verses: The choruses were catchy enough to sing along.
In theater, a chorus comments on the action collectively.
Multiple choruses may perform at a festival or competition.
The word also appears as a verb—when people chorus something, they say it simultaneously: The children chorused their thanks.
