:: Well, according to what I'm seeing, the Tonic is either 1) the first note of a diatonic scale; the keynote, or 2) the triad built on the tonic note.  Since notes that I'm calling "Antitonics" are notes that harmonically oppose the Tonic due to being in the vicinity of 600 cents away from the Tonic, and the various types of chords that I'm referring to as "Antitonic chords" are those that are built on Antitonic notes, it really does make sense to translate "Antitonic" as "Antitonika".  That said, "Antitonika" is likely a new term for German- you won't find it elsewhere with comparable meaning since it's used to translate "Antitonic", and I can't even find the musical sense of that English term on Wiktionary. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 00:09, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
