In pseudo-classical functional harmony, the 6th scale degree (either an augmented mossixth or a perfect mossixth) could be treated as mutable. The perfect mossixth would be used when invoking the diatonic V-to-I trope by modulating by a perfect mosfourth from the sixth degree "dominant". The augmented mossixth would be used when a major key needs to be used on the fourth degree "subdominant". | In pseudo-classical functional harmony, the 6th scale degree (either an augmented mossixth or a perfect mossixth) could be treated as mutable.

The ''Oneiro Falling Suspended Pentatonic'', i.e. P1-M2-P4-M5-M7 (on J, J-K-M-N-P), is also an important subset in ana modes: it roughly implies the "least" tonality (In particular, it only implies ana-ness, not major or minor tonality), and it sounds floaty, and suspended, much like suspended and quartal chords do in diatonic contexts. The ''Oneiro Rising Suspended Pentatonic'' P1-M2-P4-P6-M7 (J-K-M-O-P) can be used for similar effect. | The ''Oneiro Falling Suspended Pentatonic'', i.e. P1-M2-P4-M5-M7 (on J, J-K-M-N-P), is also an important subset in ana modes: it roughly implies the "least" tonality (In particular, it only implies ana-ness, not major or minor tonality), and it sounds floaty, and suspended, much like suspended and quartal chords do in diatonic contexts.
