=== Example scales ===
For intervals that appear in the diatonic scale, the traditional solfege names are grandfathered in. While this makes it easier to learn the new syllables as extensions of the old ones -- if you are trained with the old ones to begin with -- it also makes for many irregularities.

The system shown preserved vowels in perfect fifths in any scale that only uses notes from [[meantone]][7] modes, [[mohajira]][7] modes, and substitutions of meantone intervals with corresponding [[7-limit|septimal]] (7-limit) [[subminor]] or [[supermajor]] intervals, allowing for any diatonic type scale to be simple as easy to learn, as the inconsistencies of So-Ra and Te-Fo can be smoothed out by the fact that Ra can also be called Ro, for perfect second, or [[9/8]], and Fo is also Fe, as it's the "minor fourth", as [[4/3]] is tempered together with [[27/20]]. These [[comma]]s being [[tempered]] allows the system to preserve a surprising amount of consistency, being extremely easy to learn. Du is used for the up unison because it helps consistency, is generally used as a [[quartertone]] in scales like [[Centaurus]], and because it allows the also common augmented and upaugmented unisons to be named, with Da and Di.


The syllables **do, re, mi, fa, so[l], la, ti** have the same meaning as traditional major and perfect intervals. The names for minor intervals are also retained: **ra, me, le, te**, as well as the augmented fourth, **fi**, and diminished fifth, **se**. Some traditional names for chromatically-altered intervals appear here, but altered by a semisharp or semiflat, rather than a full sharp or flat: **di** for a semiaugmented unison, **da** for a semidiminished unison, **ri** for a semiaugmented second, **fe** for a semidiminished fourth, **si** for a semiaugmented fifth, and **li** for a semiaugmented sixth. The remaining syllables flesh out the septimal and undecimal intervals which are not represented in 12edo.
The system is built on this consistency, and preserves the standard minor intervals names, as well as -a as the standard major from La, and Ti as the strongest leading tone, here being the upmajor seventh. The remaining vowels of -uh for sub and -u for neutral are used because they correspond to the vowel sounds from their respective words.
 
=== Expanding the System ===
To expand into intervals that surpass these, such as the ^A5, we will extend to Augmented, Diminished, Upaugmented, and Downdiminished intervals. The vowels for these are -ah (short a sound), -ih (for the short i in diminished), oy, and ow (for down) respectively. They work similarly to the others, and are first used in the second set of unisons, allowing the M7-A4 and d5-m2 perfect fifths and others of the sort to still use consistent vowels, as they show up in diatonic scales.
 
If intervals are used solely for their 3-limit role, such as the M2 or in some cases the M6, the names Ro and Lo may be used, for perfect second or perfect sixth, as Ra can be thought of to imply 10/9, while Ro would imply 9/8, similarly to Lo and 27/16. In other cases, Mo would be 32/27 and To would be 16/9. A situation where this naming scheme may be used would be in Harrison Major, P1 M2 ^M3 P4 P5 M6 ^M7 P8, where the M6 is used so that the ii chord has a perfect fifth, while the vi chord has a [[Wolf interval|wolf fifth]] in order to be used as a "wolf tonic" to prevent tonicization.
 
==Kite Giedraitis's solfege==
 
[[Kite Giedraitis|Kite's]] solfege (not to be confused with the above-mentioned uniform solfege for 31edo, also by Kite) uses the conventional consonants D, R, M, F, S, L and T. It uses unconventional vowels. For each degree, the sequence runs [[wikipedia:Front_vowel|front]] to [[wikipedia:Back_vowel|back]] (i.e. bright to dim) -i -e -a -o -u for upmajor-major-mid-minor-downminor. Kite's [[24edo solfege]] is a subset of this solfege.

===Learning suggestion===
Even with many familiar consonants and a consistent vowel sequence, it can take a while to master 35 syllables. One might want to divide-and-conquer. Start with using this simple solfege:
 
Da - Ra - Ma - Fa - Sa - La - Ta - Da
 
Each syllable is a catch-all term. For example, Ra covers Ri, Re, Ra, Ro and Ru. Using this solfege helps with <u>un</u>learning the syllables Mi, Fa, So, La and Ti, which are still present but have a changed meaning.
 
Once this is fully internalized, add in the other 4 vowels.
 
===The circle of fifths===
The 5 vowels create 5 [[chain of fifths|chains of fifths]]. The 2 [[tritone]]s with duplicate names each connect 2 pairs of chains. Thus there are only 3 fifths that don't rhyme:
 
*Do - Se (P1 to P5)
*Da - Si (^1 to ^5)
*Du - Sa (v1 to v5)

|}Because the chains mostly connect up, it's fairly easy to find the note a 4th or 5th above any note. It always rhymes (except the three 5ths from D- to S-), and the consonant is as would be expected from conventional interval arithmetic. Thus Re plus a 4th is Se, Ro plus a 5th is Lo, etc. And in the example scales above, the 3rd, 6th and 7th always rhyme, as do the tonic and 4th, as do the 2nd and 5th.
 
However going a 5th up from an aug or upaug 4th would go to an aug or upaug 8ve, which doesn't exist in this solfege. Therefore one must rename the 4th as a dim 5th, then go up to a minor 2nd. Thus Fe + 5th = Su + 5th = Ru. Dim 5ths may also need renaming: So + 4th = Fi + 4th = Ti.
 
==Andrew Heathwaite's solfege==
[[Andrew Heathwaite]]'s solfege is a subset of his [[41edo]] solfege. It expands on the conventional Do - Di/Ra - Re - Ri/Me - Mi - Fa - Fi/Se - So - Si/Le - La - Li/Te - Ti - Do. As a result there are 6 different vowel sequences.

Note that there is little pattern to the traditional names.
Note that there is little pattern to the traditional names.


Between **do** and **fa**, there is a somewhat consistent pattern in the syllables associated with each interval and the interval a perfect fifth above it. This is especially helpful for learning to sing [[tetrachord|tetrachordal scales]] and seventh chords. The irregularities between **do** and **fa** are grandfathered in from the traditional system and are easy to learn.

For intervals that appear in the diatonic scale, the traditional solfege names are grandfathered in. While this makes it easier to learn the new syllables as extensions of the old ones -- if you are trained with the old ones to begin with -- it also makes for many irregularities.&lt;br /&gt;
!Major scale
&lt;br /&gt;
|Do
The syllables &lt;strong&gt;do, re, mi, fa, so[l], la, ti&lt;/strong&gt; have the same meaning as traditional major and perfect intervals. The names for minor intervals are also retained: &lt;strong&gt;ra, me, le, te&lt;/strong&gt;, as well as the augmented fourth, &lt;strong&gt;fi&lt;/strong&gt;, and diminished fifth, &lt;strong&gt;se&lt;/strong&gt;. Some traditional names for chromatically-altered intervals appear here, but altered by a semisharp or semiflat, rather than a full sharp or flat: &lt;strong&gt;di&lt;/strong&gt; for a semiaugmented unison, &lt;strong&gt;da&lt;/strong&gt; for a semidiminished unison, &lt;strong&gt;ri&lt;/strong&gt; for a semiaugmented second, &lt;strong&gt;fe&lt;/strong&gt; for a semidiminished fourth, &lt;strong&gt;si&lt;/strong&gt; for a semiaugmented fifth, and &lt;strong&gt;li&lt;/strong&gt; for a semiaugmented sixth. The remaining syllables flesh out the septimal and undecimal intervals which are not represented in 12edo.&lt;br /&gt;
|Re
&lt;br /&gt;
|Mi
Note that there is little pattern to the traditional names.&lt;br /&gt;
|Fa
&lt;br /&gt;
|Sol
Between &lt;strong&gt;do&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;fa&lt;/strong&gt;, there is a somewhat consistent pattern in the syllables associated with each interval and the interval a perfect fifth above it. This is especially helpful for learning to sing &lt;a class="wiki_link" href="/tetrachord"&gt;tetrachordal scales&lt;/a&gt; and seventh chords. The irregularities between &lt;strong&gt;do&lt;/strong&gt; and &lt;strong&gt;fa&lt;/strong&gt; are grandfathered in from the traditional system and are easy to learn.&lt;br /&gt;
