	There are three main modes used in composition: dicot[7], called Durmoll (seen above), 5edo, and 10edo. Traditionally the main triad in most classical and folk-style music is taken to be [0 3 6], or what is known here as the neutral triad. This triad on note X is called Xt. Degree arithmetic is assumed to be modulo 10.		There are three main modes used in composition: dicot[7], called Durmoll (seen above), 5edo, and 10edo.

	Earth#10 jazz music has more African influence in its instrumentation as well, with modern balafons and electric (and acoustic) koras and kamele ngoni being extremely common in jazz and other popular musical styles. As such, European instruments are sparingly used in jazz, and hence the saxophone is more commonly used in the orchestra.

	Due to the influence of Nystrom, hexadecimal (called nystromal in this universe, to distinguish it from "tonal" referring to music) is used as an official number base across the larger cities in Northern Europe, the Northwestern European Union, and some formerly colonial cities in Asia. Nystromal is also used and accepted in most dual-mode calculators and is even used and accepted in many large research journals.

	Called variously ''Interlangue'', ''Tussentaal'', ''the Betweenspeak'', and ''Zwischensprache'' (the name used in this article), it originally was formed as a pidgin language in the 19th to 20th centuries due to frequent contact of people of France, Holland, and the United Kingdom. It has several names due to there not being a standardized grammar or lexicon for the language yet, however, there were a few attempts to do so. It has also been theorized that this forms a dialect continuum with the French and Dutch dialects forming the ends thereof, with the British dialect somewhat in the middle.

	Pieces or sections of pieces written in Durmoll or something similar have a strong resemblance to the music of the Classical period and traditional Western harmony is applied accordingly.

			Intervals are called the unison, first, second... ninth, dekatave, first-and-dekatave, second-and-dekatave... ninth-and-dekatave, double dekatave.

			The Italian sixth on 0 is [7 0 5], the French sixth is [7 0 2 5], and the German sixth [7 0 3 5]. All resolve to the triad on the sixth above 0.

			There are two keyboard layouts commonly used today for modern music, the 'English' and 'German' layouts. The 'English' layout is used in New Pythagorean (see below) works and jazz works but the 'German' keyboard is used for classical-style works. Both may be used in the course of a single work.
