To the original poster. Here is what I found. Definition of the Term Glissando Example of the Sound
Sounds like a ten dollar word for the sound of a slide.  |

It's also called a portamento. On a fretless instrument it comes out smooth. When you break it up into a series of notes, it becomes a glissando. Frets break it up for you, so there's no real difference on a fretted instrument.
