Cadence refers to the rhythmic flow of a sequence of sounds or words. It is commonly used in the context of music to describe the pattern and speed of beats within a measure. In a broader sense, cadence can apply to any repetitive motion or series, whether it's the pace of footsteps, the flow of language in writing, or the progression in any form of art where a regular pattern is identifiable.
