In 22-edo, the major chord is 0-8-13 = 0¢-436¢-709¢. In 19-edo, it's 0-6-11 = 0¢-379¢-695¢. The two chords sound quite different, because "major 3rd" is defined only in terms of the fifth, not in terms of what JI ratios it approximates. To describe the sound of the chord, color notation can be used. 22-edo major chords sound ru (7-under) and 19-edo major chords sound yo (5-over). | In 22-edo, the major chord is 0-8-13 = 0¢-436¢-709¢.

Another example: I7 - bVII7 - IV7 - I7. To make this work, the 7th in the I7 chord must be a minor 7th. in 22-edo, that 7th sounds zo (7-over). In 19-edo, it sounds gu (5-under). If you want to play this progression in 19-edo, using the downminor (zo) 7th will cause shifts or drifts in the progression. | Another example: I7 - bVII7 - IV7 - I7.
