reading these replies it suddenly dawns on me that I've been familiar with the musical term since effectively forever but probably didn't encounter the word for "strong point" - written or spoken - until much later so would've said "fortay" without a second thought

I assume my daughters (learning piano and guitar) will be similar, and their friends (learning fencing) will be the opposite.
