A comma (the actual punctuation mark ",") is spoken as "add", thus C,v7 is "C add-down-seven". The only exception is when a comma separates two numbers, as in C4,7 which is "C four-seven". A comma is written, and "add" is spoken, whenever not doing so would cause confusion with another chord. C^,~6 is clear without a comma or an "add" if limiting oneself to 31edo. However, some edos like 58-edo have an upmid 3rd and 6th, and C^~6 would be P1 ^~3 P5 ^~6.

Note that 4:5:6:7 = C E G vBb is named C,v7 not Cv7 because Cv7 is an alternate name for C~v7. To get a shorter name for this important chord, one could call it a harmonic7 chord, or one could borrow from [[color notation]] to call it a har7 chord, written Ch7. Names for subharmonic chords can be similarly shortened.
