Nachschlag

edit
 
A "shaked" or trilled Nachschlag.

The word Nachschlag (German: [ˈnaːxˌʃlaːk]) translates, literally, to “after-beat”, and refers to "the two notes that sometimes terminate a trill, and which, when taken in combination with the last two notes of the shake, may form a turn." The term Nachschlag also refers to 
“an ornament that took the form of a supplementary note that, when placed after a main note, “steals” time from it.” [1]

 
A smooth Nachschlag.

The first definition of Nachschlag refers to the “shaked” or trilled version of the ornament, while the second definition refers to the “smooth” version. This ornament has also been referred to as a cadent or a springer in English Baroque performance practice. Instruction books from the Baroque period, such as Christopher Simpson's "The Division Violist", refer to the cadent as an ornament in which "a Note is sometimes graced by joyning [sic] part of its sound to the note following... whose following Quaver is Placed with the ensuing Note, but played with the same Bow." [2]
