* 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 ~~''k''md~~ (or ''k-degree'' and ~~''k''d~~ if context allows). Just like for mos interval names, we use 0-indexing, so the perfect 0-mosdegree is the tonic. The modifiers ''perfect'', ''minor'', ''major'', ''augmented'' and ''diminished'' can be used just like for mos interval names: for example, ''minor 3-mosdegree'' (m3md) denotes the degree that lies a minor 3-mosstep above the tonic. Modifiers can be omitted when clear from context.

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 the perfect 0-mosdegree is the tonic. The modifiers ''perfect'', ''minor'', ''major'', ''augmented'' and ''diminished'' can be used just like for mos interval names: for example, ''minor 3-mosdegree'' (m3md) denotes the degree that lies a minor 3-mosstep above the tonic. Modifiers can be omitted when clear from context.

To denote a chord or a mode on a given degree, write the chord or the mode in parentheses after the degree symbol. Either write out the chord in cents, edosteps or mossteps (e.g. in [[13edo]] [[5L 3s]], the 0-369-646 chord can be written 0-4-7\13, P0ms-M2ms-M4ms or 7|0 0-2-4ms), or use whatever names or abbreviations for the chord or mode the reader will understand. For example, in the LsLLsLLs mode of 5L 3s, we have m2md(0-369-646), or the chord 0-369-646 on the 2-mosdegree which is a minor 2-mosstep. The LsLLsLLs mode also has m2md(7|0), meaning that we have the [[UDP|7|0]] (LLsLLsLs) mode on the 2-mosdegree which is a minor 2-mosstep in LsLLsLLs.
