Let me take a very straightforward example of ternary form.

我来给你们演奏一段三部曲式的曲子。

Is just ternary form, a, b, a with the second and final a slightly modified.

那就是三段式 a b a在第二部分和最后一部分会有小小的改动。

So you could think you were coming out of ternary form.

你们可以把这个看为三部曲式。

We also talked about the simplest of all of these musical forms: ternary form.

我们还讲了曲式中最简单的一种三部曲式。

Some early electronic computers were ternary, that's three states, and even quinary, using 5 states.

一些早期的电子计算机是三元的，即三个状态，甚至是五元的，使用 5 个状态。

There’s been research into ternary computers, with circuits in three possible states, and even quantum computers, whose circuits can be in multiple states simultaneously.

已经对三元计算机进行了研究，具有三种可能状态的电路，甚至量子计算机，其电路可以同时处于多种状态。
