About Intervals and triads name typing

Read and type the names beside the Intervals and triads pictures. Practice 16 names in a fixed sequence, from Minor second to Augmented triad, keeping each picture connected with its written term.

Practice twelve harmonic intervals above C4 and four root-position triads with C as root, in separate sets.

In interval diagrams, gray is the root and teal the upper note. Read the full quality name; case-sensitive abbreviations are not mixed into answers.

Enter the full displayed name or a registered alternative to advance automatically. You can edit unfinished text. Enter during input-method composition does not count as an error.

The first nonempty input starts the timer. The final screen shows elapsed time, keystrokes per minute and errors. Best times are stored in this browser separately for each topic, set and language.

2. Read the picture and current name together.
3. Type the full name or a registered alternative.

Names and spelling

The displayed label is the representative name for that entry. Similar pictures can have different full names.

Only registered alternatives count as answers. Related terms in the explanation are not automatically accepted.

Changing the page language changes the names to type. Japanese pages include readings; Chinese pages include pinyin input.

Practice tips

• Read the current spelling before concentrating on speed.
• Break a long name into words, then type it as a whole.
• Enlarge the picture when comparing small features.
• Edit unfinished text directly. Enter on an incorrect nonempty answer records one error.
• Retry a set in the same fixed order.
• Switch to the corresponding page language to practice its names.

Frequently asked questions

Which name should I type?

When does the timer start?

It starts with the first nonempty input, not while you read the list.

Where is my best time stored?
