Let's discover these analysis symbols of the major and harmonic minor scales.
(我們用羅馬數字表示大調和和聲小調)
First, write the analysis symbols for the corresponding diatonic triads.
(首先寫出相對應的全音三和弦的羅馬數字)
Some theorist use a variation of this system.
(有些研究者用的方法略有不同)
Next, let's look at inverted seventh chords.
(接下來我們看一下七和絃的轉位)
The previously-discussed 7 identifies a root position seventh chord.
(剛剛說過,我們用阿拉伯數字7表示基本音位的七和絃)
6 and 5 identify a first inversion seventh.
(上標六和下標五用來表示七和絃的第一轉位)
4 and 3 identify a second inversion seventh.
(4和3用來表示七和絃的第二轉位)
A lone 2 identifies a third inversion seventh chord.
(上標一個2用來表示七和絃的第三轉位)
Let's arrange the symbols in a different way. Notice anything unusual?
(我們來重新排列一下這些符號,注意到了麼?)
The inversion numbers are in numeric order from 7 to 2.
(表示轉位元的數字從7到2遞減)
