Pythagorean intervals use unmodified names (major second, minor third, etc.). Higher-limit interval names are created by stacking prefixes that raise or lower by a comma. The prefix for the highest prime comes first.
The naturals CDEFGAB correspond to Pythagorean intervals. Sharp and flat accidentals raise/lower by 2187/2048, and half-sharp and half-flat accidentals raise/lower by 33/32. To represent non-2.3.11 subgroup intervals, a comma-seperated list of primes, each of which multiplies the basic note by a comma, is added (e.g. 5/4 = E[-5], 13/10 = Fd[+13, -5]).

The naturals CDEFGAB correspond to Pythagorean intervals. Sharp and flat accidentals raise/lower by 2187/2048, and half-sharp and half-flat accidentals raise/lower by 33/32. To represent non-2.3.11 subgroup intervals, a comma-seperated list of primes, each of which multiplies the basic note by a comma, is added (e.g. 5/4 = E[-5], 13/10 = Fd[+13, -5]).
