English term or phrase: stroke

DIFFERENT CONTEXTS:
1)what I tried to talk about was how to play more efficiently, more relaxed, and I talked about the basics of sitting position, hand position, basic strokes, Some strumming techniques, that sort of thing.

2)All that being said, the thing I'm going to
start with is maybe the hardest thing to get on classical guitar, and that is a really warm, full-sounding free stroke.

3)Okay, when I say warm and full, these terms we use to describe sound are kind of random, but technically what I'm saying is we want to have a stroke that has very little high partials to it and is more of the full bottom range.

4)So the idea is, how do we suppress the upper partials in a free stroke?
And the reason a lot of people get a thin-sounding free stroke is that they pull the string upwards.

compás (toque ligero)

Explanation:
El término musical sería compás--pero soy consciente que en este contexto no es lo más adecuado. Parecería que es una lección de violin o un instrumnento de cuerda y por eso adiciono "toque ligero" aunque tambien no es la mejor traducción.

pulsar/pulsación

Explanation:
Rest Stroke= (la técnica) del apoyado

También se le llama pulsación apoyada

Esta técnica es extremadamente útil y fundamental al tocar una sucesión de notas solas en la guitarra, y también la base del desarrollo de tonos fuertes y claros con la mano derecha. Probablemente la gran diferencia entre el guitarrista profesional y el aficionado radique en el uso y manejo del apoyado.
La esencia de esta técnica es que el dedo no se separe de la guitarra, sino que empuje hacia abajo y descanse en la siguiente cuerda.

To stroke= pulsar/tocar
Open stroke= pulsación al aire

Basic strokes= técnicas/modos básicos de pulsar/tocar las cuerdas
