The use of time signature is not surprising only in GE1, as FE does not use the indication in the Etudes – contrary to the manuscripts – at all, neither in Op. 10 nor in the Etude in F minor, Dbop. 36 No. 1 (cf. also the Impromptu in A major, Op. 29). In any case, the correctness and authenticity of the time signature does not raise any doubts thanks to A (→FC). The correct time signature was returned in GE2 (→GE3). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Changes of metre , Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions , 4/4 or 2/2 |

In spite of the clearly divided slurs of A (→FC), both FE and GE1 embrace these three bars with one slur. The later beginning of the slur in bar 31 in EE is the original version, not corrected by Chopin in the base text to this edition (the extension of the slur is visible in A and most probably in FC). category imprint: Differences between sources; Corrections & alterations issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , Corrections in A , GE revisions , Authentic corrections of FC , Tenuto slurs |

The pair of signs, present only in FC, was certainly added by Chopin. The hairpins were repeated in GE and later also in EE3, yet the range of signs in these editions is closer to these written in bars 39-40. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in GE , Scope of dynamic hairpins , Authentic corrections of FC |
