Notation, such as [[Diamond-mos notation|diamond-mos]], can be used instead of the abbreviation of a mosdegree. For example, LsLsLLLs can be written "5L 3s 5|2 m4md". "5L 3s 5|2 @4d".

For a mos pattern given a name in TAMNAMS, there is also the option of using the prefix for the pattern instead of saying "xL ys": the 5L 3s mode LsLLsLLs can be written "onei-5|2".

=== Intervals in arbitrary scales ===
Zero-indexed interval names are also used for arbitrary scales, so we can still call a k-step interval a ''k-step'' and the corresponding degree the ''k-degree''. But instead of ''k-mosstep'' and ''k-mosdegree'', we use ''k-scalestep'' and ''k-scaledegree'' for arbitrary scales.

=== Proposal: Naming ternary scales' step ratios===
=== Proposal: Naming ternary scales' step ratios===
Analogously to binary scales including mosses, ternary scales, i.e. those with three step sizes L > M > S, including [[MV3]] scales, can also be defined by their L:M:S ratios. Here TAMNAMS names the L/M ratio and then the M/S ratio as if these were mos step ratios: for example, [[21edo]] [[diasem]] (5L 2M 2s, LMLSLMLSL or its inverse) has a step ratio of L:M:S = 3:2:1, so we name it ''soft-basic diasem''. If the ratios are the same, repetition may optionally be omitted, so that [[26edo]] diasem, 4:2:1, may optionally be called "basic diasem" instead of "basic-basic diasem". Not to be confused with step ratios where one ratio is unspecified; for that, use:
