::: I'm being a stickler for this because the quality of your webapp is so high, I'm sure in the future far most people will learn color notation directly from xen-calc than from my writings. Especially now that the xenwiki links to it on every interval page. You will have far, far more than one "enthusiastic user"! But of course with freeware, you never get to see how big your user base becomes. Anyway, once we get this matter straightened out, I'd like to link to xen-calc in the first paragraph of the color notation xenwiki page, and also on my various websites. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 11:29, 23 August 2021 (UTC) | ::: I'm being a stickler for this because the quality of your webapp is so high, I'm sure in the future far most people will learn color notation directly from xen-calc than from my writings.

== Possible extension of colorspeak to describe certain subgroups == | |||
Using 9 instead of 3 could be "wawa", as in Laquinyo wawa = 2.9.15 & 3125/3072. See https://en.xen.wiki/w/Kite_Guitar_Scales#Eleven-tone_-_The_checkerboard_scale_.288L_3s.29. Note that 2.9.5 & 3125/3072 is impossible, so once we know the first 2 elements of the subgroup and the comma, the 3rd element is automatically determined (altho it could also be written as 2.9.5/3). The rule is, use 15 only if the comma's 3-count is an odd number, which incidentally necessitates the 5-count also being odd. Thus Gu wawa uses 2.9.5 not 2.9.15. | |||
A 2.27.whatever subgroup would be triwa. Using 4 instead of 2 would have the unfortunate name "caca". Maybe call it bica instead? Not sure how to name subgroups like 2.3.35 or 2.3.7/5 or 2.7/5.9/5. | |||
