I think the other fret probably has a very different origin, though, and they tend to keep these concise for time reasons. I have seen some of these where they will mention that one should not confuse a word with an unrelated homonym. Also, even though I am also a musician and know what the other “fret” means, most non-musicians are far more likely to encounter the verb discussed here. That being said, I would like a second podcast outlining the origin of the noun.
