A (''k''-)'''flought ~~scale~~''' is ~~a scale~~ made of ''k'' > 1 copies (called ''strands'') of an ''n''-note scale, where ''any two copies'' are interleaved so that any note of the first copy falls between two notes of the other copy, and vice versa. The concept is a generalization of [[dipentatonic scale]]s.

A scale is (''k''-)'''flought''' if it is made of ''k'' > 1 copies (called ''strands'') of an ''n''-note scale, where ''any two copies'' are interleaved so that any note of the first copy falls between two notes of the other copy, and vice versa. The concept is a generalization of [[dipentatonic scale]]s.

[[Blackdye]], [[Zil]][14], and [[bicycle]] are examples of flought scales, because they each have two interleaved strands, respectively Pyth[5], Zarlino, and 8:9:10:11:13:14. The terminology, however, is intended to cover any number of strands and any choice of strand scale.)

The term ''flought'' was coined by Inthar, by evolving the Old English past participle ''(ġe)flohten'' of the verb ''fleohtan'' 'to weave; to plait' to Modern English. It is cognate to the Modern English words ''plait'' and ''plexus''.
