The phrase ''k-mosstep'' by itself does not specify the exact size of an interval. To refer to specific intervals, the familiar modifiers of ''major'', ''minor'', ''augmented'', ''diminished'' and ''perfect'' are used. As mosses have [[maximum variety]] 2, every interval (except for the [[1/1|unison]] and [[2/1|octave]]) will be in no more than two sizes.

The modifiers of ''major'', ''minor'', ''augmented'', ''perfect'', and ''diminished'' (abbreviated as M, m, A, P, and d respectively) are given as such:
