Names for this scale's intervals are the same as that as diatonic intervals (prefixed with pel- to distinguish them from diatonic intervals), but with the harmonic qualities of diatonic switched: major and minor are switched, as are augmented and diminished.{{MOS intervals|Interval Notation=ordinals|MOS Prefix=pel}} | Names for this scale's intervals are the same as that as diatonic intervals (prefixed with pel- to distinguish them from diatonic intervals), but with the harmonic qualities of diatonic switched: major and minor are switched, as are augmented and diminished.{{MOS intervals|Interval Notation=ordinals|MOS Prefix=pel}} | ||

The most common way of notating this scale is to use the same note names and accidentals as that of diatonic (CDEFGAB, #, and b), but read as antidiatonic instead. There are, however, two ways of notating accidentals: | The most common way of notating this scale, particularly when working with mavila temperament, is to use the same note names and accidentals as that of diatonic (CDEFGAB, #, and b), but read as antidiatonic instead.

*Harmonic antidiatonic notation, where the sharps and flats of diatonic switch roles: sharps flatten and flats sharpen. This article uses this interpretation of sharps and flats. | *Harmonic antidiatonic notation, where the sharps and flats of diatonic switch roles: sharps flatten and flats sharpen.
