While triads show promise, the real fun in 22edo is [[tetrad]]s. There is a wealth of interesting tertian-based tetrads.

== Ups and downs notation ==
{{todo|rework|inline=1|text=Properly merge this section into the rest of the page, in order to avoid duplicate or contradictory information.}}
{{See also|Ups and downs notation #Chords and Chord Progressions}}
Various [[22edo]] triads, 6th and 7th chords, named via [[Ups and downs notation|ups and downs]]. Not meant to be exhaustive, but this list does demonstrate the basic rules for naming.

Highly implausible chords are named as a more plausible [[Chord homonym|homonym]], e.g. {{nowrap|0–9–14 {{=}} C4(^5)}} becomes {{nowrap|9–14–22 {{=}} Fm}}, where "a" stands for augmented and "d" stands for diminished.

A punctuation comma (",") is spoken as "add", thus Cv,7 is "C-down add-seven". The only exception is when a comma separates two numbers, as in C4,7 which is "C four-seven". A comma is written, and "add" is spoken, whenever not doing so would cause confusion with another chord. 

4:5:6:7 = C vE G Bb is named Cv,7. To get a shorter name for this important chord, one could call it a harmonic7 chord, or one could borrow from [[color notation]] to call it a har7 chord, written Ch7. Names for subharmonic chords can be similarly shortened.
