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. The most explicit option is to 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) and to write the mode. To save space, you can use whatever names or abbreviations for the chord or mode you have defined for the reader. 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|), meaning that we have the 7| (LLsLLsLs) mode on the 2-mosdegree which is a minor 2-mosstep in LsLLsLLs (see [[TAMNAMS#Proposal: Naming mos modes|below]] for the convention we have used to mame the mode).
