It is not necessary to learn all by heart. Simply that there are 5 degrees in a tone, and 3 degrees in a diatonic semitone. So going from one note name to another name is always an odd difference of degrees. If the change is even, it can be written as sharp and flat.<br /> | It is not necessary to learn all by heart.

For intervals that appear in the diatonic scale, the traditional solfege names are grandfathered in. While this makes it easier to learn the new syllables as extensions of the old ones -- if you are trained with the old ones to begin with -- it also makes for many irregularities.<br /> | For intervals that appear in the diatonic scale, the traditional solfege names are grandfathered in.
