+) Suppose a 12-edo song is in A minor, the chords go Am - Ab (or G#) - Am, and the melody uses a C note over all chords. If the 2nd chord is G# major, since the melody note is the 3rd of the chord, the note would logically be spelled B#. (If it weren't, you would have a G# - C - D# chord, which would logically be called a "sus-dim-4th chord", which is silly.) Calling the 2nd chord Ab major allows the melody note to remain C. Which it should, because it's better if a single note doesn't have two names. Thus the chords go Am - Ab - Am, which in relative notation is Im - bI - Im.
+) W and H mean whole and half, and imply that the L/s ratio is 2:1. But in 19-edo, the ratio is 3:2. L and s are better names because they don't imply an incorrect L/s ratio. --[[User:TallKite|TallKite]] ([[User talk:TallKite|talk]]) 09:44, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
