The aim of the paper is to conceptualize some aspects in the understanding of a note text. The process of performing a note text is divided into two parts, referred to as interpretive and executive levels; the main features of the phases are dealt with in the beginning of the paper. The interpretive level is then examined more closely from two points of view. First, the question of notional competence is clarified within the framework of a model-theoretic semantics of notation, developed by the author during recent years. Notational competence is approached by explicating the logical connection between notation and the sound universe as a clarification of a competent user's intuition of notation. Then information processing during the understanding of the meaning of a note expression is preliminarily modeled on the basis of a production theory (ACT*) provided by John R. Anderson (1983). Even if being notationally competent and understanding note expressions have the same “surface” manifestations, the “deep” structures connected to the two phenomena are assumed to differ considerably from each other
