Line 231:

* The pattern continues, ddd for triply diminished and AAA for triply augmented. Note that applying this operation more than 3 times is an unlikely usecase, and a shorthand notaton of d^3 and A^3 or an alternative notation or terminology entirely would likely be preferable in such circumstances, hence repetition of the corresponding letter is a sufficient system.

== Naming mos degrees ==

To denote degrees in a given mos (or altered mos) mode, we use the term ''k-mosdegree'', abbreviated as ~~kmd~~ (or ''k-degree'' and kd if context allows). Just like for mos interval names, we use 0-indexing, so 0-mosdegree is the tonic.

To denote degrees in a given mos (or altered mos) mode, we use the term ''k-mosdegree'', abbreviated as ''k''md (or ''k-degree'' and ''k''d if context allows). Just like for mos interval names, we use 0-indexing, so 0-mosdegree is the tonic.

When unmodified, kmd always denotes the kth mosdegree in the current mos mode. If necessary, the modifiers ''minor'', ''major'', ''augmented'' and ''diminished'' can be used: for example, ''minor 3-mosdegree'' (m3md) denotes the degree that lies a minor 3-mosstep above the tonic.
