A ternary necklace ''w''('''x'''<sub>1</sub>, '''x'''<sub>2</sub>, '''x'''<sub>3</sub>) is a ''MOS substitution'' scale if there exists a permutation <math>\pi \in S_3</math> such that the following holds:
A ternary scale word ''w''('''x'''<sub>1</sub>, '''x'''<sub>2</sub>, '''x'''<sub>3</sub>) is a ''MOS substitution'' scale word if there exists a permutation <math>\pi \in S_3</math> such that the following holds:
* identifying '''x'''<sub>π(1)</sub> and '''x'''<sub>π(2)</sub> results in a MOS (called the ''template MOS'') and
* identifying '''x'''<sub>π(1)</sub> and '''x'''<sub>π(2)</sub> results in a MOS (called the ''template MOS'') and
* deleting '''x'''<sub>π(3)</sub> (called the ''slot letter'') results in a MOS (called the ''filling MOS'').
* deleting all instances of '''x'''<sub>π(3)</sub> (called the ''slot letter'') results in a MOS (called the ''filling MOS'').
