The general term for large/small/central is '''magnitude'''. Only intervals have a magnitude, notes never do, and L and s never appear on the staff. A ratio's magnitude is the sum of all the [[monzo]] exponents except the first one, divided by 7, and rounded off. {{nowrap|0 {{=}} central|1 {{=}} large|2 {{=}} double large}}, etc. {{nowrap|81/64 {{=}} {{vector| -6 4 }}}}, and 4/7 rounds to 1, so 81/64 is a lawa 3rd = Lw3. Similarly, {{nowrap|135/128 {{=}} {{vector| -7 3 1 }}}} is a layo unison = Ly1. Unfortunately, magnitudes do not add up predictably like colors and degrees: {{nowrap|w2 + w2 {{=}} Lw3}}. | The general term for large/small/central is '''magnitude'''.

Colors can be doubled or tripled, which are abbreviated '''bi-''' ("b{{w|close front unrounded vowel|ee}}") and '''tri-''' ("tr{{w|close front unrounded vowel|ee}}"): 49/25 is a bizogu 9th = zzgg9, and 128/125 is a trigu 2nd = ggg2. Bi- is only used if it shortens the name: 25/16 is a yoyo 5th, not a biyo 5th. Likewise with magnitudes: double-large is lala and triple-large is trila. For quadruple, etc., see [[#Exponents]]. | Colors can be doubled or tripled, which are abbreviated '''bi-''' ("b{{w|close front unrounded vowel|ee}}", /bi/) and '''tri-''' ("tr{{w|close front unrounded vowel|ee}}", /tɻiː/): 49/25 is a bizogu 9th = zzgg9, and 128/125 is a trigu 2nd = ggg2.

Colors using only one prime above 3 are called '''primary''' colors. Thus gu and yoyo are primary and ruyo is non-primary. | Colors using only one prime above 3 are called '''primary''' colors. Thus gu and yoyo are primary and ruyo is non-primary. | ||
