When speaking of interval categories, as an extension of slendric it is possible to use a system [[Slendric#Interval categories|designed for slendric]], where notes are inflected from the diatonic [[chain of fifths]] by means of the prefixes "super" and "sub", such that three of these inflections stack to a diatonic minor second. These "super" and "sub" prefixes are equivalent to "up" and "down" in [[#Notation|the notation]] system, where lifts and drops would represent a single edostep in [[ups and downs notation]] in the context of larger rodan edos that map this comma to multiple edosteps.

When speaking of interval categories, as an extension of slendric it is possible to use a system [[Slendric#Interval categories|designed for slendric]], where notes are inflected from the diatonic [[chain of fifths]] by means of the prefixes "super" and "sub", such that three of these inflections stack to a diatonic minor second. Such an inflection is equivalent to a quark, and due to the quark's versatile nature in rodan as a generalized comma, simple pental and septimal intervals tend to be represented by single-quark offsets from the diatonic spine. These "super" and "sub" prefixes are equivalent to "up" and "down" in [[#Notation|the notation]] system, where lifts and drops would represent a single edostep in [[ups and downs notation]] in the context of larger rodan edos that map this comma to multiple edosteps.

In the following table, odd harmonics and subharmonics 1–21 are in '''bold'''.
