* If you add a chroma to a perfect (Pmos) or major (Lmos) interval, it becomes ''augmented'' (A; Amos). If you add two chromas instead, it becomes ''doubly augmented'' (AA; AAmos). (Diatonic examples: augmented mos2nd (Amos2nd), augmented mos4th (Amos4th), doubly augmented mos5th (AAmos5th).) | * If you add a chroma to a perfect (Pmos) or major (Lmos) interval, it becomes ''augmented'' (A; Amos).

* 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. | * The pattern continues, ddd for triply diminished and AAA for triply augmented.
