Harmononyms can indicate movement in more than one dimension simultaneously. For example, [[15/8]] is 3/2 times 5/4, or Chy + Ly, so it is called Chyli. [[11/6]] is 2/3 times 11/4, or Fu + Zy, so it is called Fuzi. (Note that the final Y in "Zy" is replaced with an I, which represents palatalization of the preceding consonant.) [[6/5]] is 3/2 times 4/5, or Chy + Su, so it is called Chys. (Note that the U in "Su" is removed.)

It can represent pitches up to a movement of ±12. To access these higher harmonyms, attach an appropriate prefix to the corresponding ±1 direction.
 
There exist 1D harmonyms used to represent pitches octaves away, although they aren't typically used.

A chord including Ah, Chy, and Zy would be called AhChyZy. A chord including Ah, Ly, Chy, and Chyli would be called AhChyLyChyli.
A chord including Ah, Chy, and Zy would be called AhChyZy. A chord including Ah, Ly, Chy, and Chyli would be called AhChyLyChyli.
Commas are represented with their corresponding harmonym followed by -ama. The harmonyms used in comma names must use their numeric prefix form. For example, Scirvykr (Scirvy + Kru) must change to Dachykr (Dachy + Kru).
Here are some examples of comma names:
Schupama (64/63, Septimal comma)
Dachykrama (243/242, Rastma)
Trafutralimiama (875/864, Keema)
