Role-fege is similar to solfege, but instead of indicating the scale degree, it indicates the role a note plays in a chord.


Role	Syllable	notes
Root	Ru
2nd	Tu	two
3rd	Thi	"thee", three
4th	Fo	four / fourth
5th	Fi	fifth
6th	Si	sixth
7th	Se	"say"
9th	Na
11th	Le	"lay"
13th	The	"thay"

For example, C major 7th in lo5 voicing has notes G C E B, and each note would be sung as "Fi Ru Ti Se".

Happy Birthday melody:

(I) Fi Fi Si Fi Ru (V) Thi

Ru Ru Tu Ru Fi (I) Ru

etc.

Role-fege is ideal for teaching barbershop tags.
