staccato is a short stopped note, like a precussion sound, it lasts 1 second at most

tenuto is "held for its full time value or slightly more.", so like a fermata


a tenuto is defenitely longer

i think its tenuto because staccato is when you use your tongue to stop the note your playing, so its usually a very quick note
