The color accidentals w, y, g, z and r must not vary. Spanish speakers shouldn't translate yellow into amarillo, and then shorten it to amo or mo. In order for terms such as 1o, 3u, 17a, etc. to be universal, -o, -u and -a for over, under and all must not vary. Thus wa, yo, gu, zo and ru are also invariant. L and s for large and small must also not vary. (Exception: Korean speakers should use -유 -yu for -u.)

Not only staff notation but also written chord names must not vary. Ch7 and Cs7 are invariant, thus h and s are also invariant. The words harmonic and subharmonic can vary. B natural is called H in certain countries, e.g. Germany. The English and German pronounciations of the letter distinguish h from H. "Aitch sieben" = h7 = w1 y3 w5 z7, and "ha sieben" = H7 = H D♯ F♯ A.

All colors for primes 11 and higher can vary. In many European languages, tho/thu/tha becomes tro/tru/tra. Spanish for 11 is once, and lo/lu/la might become onco/oncu/onca. Or it might remain lo/lu/la, for conciseness. If so, a helpful mnemonic is lavender, since most Western and even some Asian languages have a word very similar to it. Italian for 11 is undici, suggesting uno/unu/una. But if 1o is uno, an "uno chord" would also be a "one chord". Thus 1o becomes either undo/undu/unda or perhaps unó/unu/una, with the accent distinguishing unó from uno.

In Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Hungary, Norway, Denmark, Serbia, Croatia, Slovenia, Finland and Iceland (and Sweden before about 1990s), B natural is called H and B flat is called B. H7 must be distinguished from h7, One possible solution is to have  the English and e.g.German pronounciations of the letter distinguish h from H. "Aitch sieben" = h7 = w1 y3 w5 z7, and "ha sieben" = H7 = H D♯ F♯ A.


Spanish: the "c" in onco / oncu / onca is pronounced "s", as in once. (''Should it be onzo / onzu / onza?'')
