* Every MOS scale has two ''child MOS'' scales. The two children of the MOS scale ''a''L ''b''s are {{nowrap| (''a'' + ''b'')L ''a''s }} (generated by generators of soft-of-basic ''a''L ''b''s) and {{nowrap| ''a''L (''a'' + ''b'')s }} (generated by generators of hard-of-basic ''a''L'' b''s).
* Every MOS scale has two ''child MOS'' scales. The two children of the MOS scale ''a''L ''b''s are {{nowrap| (''a'' + ''b'')L ''a''s }} (generated by generators of soft-of-basic ''a''L ''b''s) and {{nowrap| ''a''L (''a'' + ''b'')s }} (generated by generators of hard-of-basic ''a''L'' b''s).
* Every MOS scale (with a specified [[equave]] ''Ɛ''), excluding {{nowrap|''a''L ''a''s{{angbr|''Ɛ''}} }}, has a ''parent MOS''. If {{nowrap| ''a'' > ''b'' }}, the parent of ''a''L&nbsp;''b''s is {{nowrap| ''b''L (''a'' − ''b'')s }}; if {{nowrap| ''a'' < ''b'' }}, the parent of ''a''L&nbsp;''b''s is {{nowrap| ''a''L (''b'' − ''a'')s }}.
* Every MOS scale (with a specified [[equave]] ''Ɛ''), excluding {{nowrap|''a''L ''a''s{{angbr|''Ɛ''|-)}} }}, has a ''parent MOS''. If {{nowrap| ''a'' > ''b'' }}, the parent of ''a''L&nbsp;''b''s is {{nowrap| ''b''L (''a'' − ''b'')s }}; if {{nowrap| ''a'' < ''b'' }}, the parent of ''a''L&nbsp;''b''s is {{nowrap| ''a''L (''b'' − ''a'')s }}.
