@roymccoy Phew! I'm much relieved now.

@roymccoy PATTY-PHYSICAL is hyphenated. I looked it up on Wiki.

@l-j Thanks for your reply. I hear you. Even though it's legitimate language, the Scrabble Gods aren't ever going to allow it. Que sera sera.

I come to this as a person who studied solfege for many years in at Berklee College of Music, so I'm kind of a nerd about it.

Consider this: The word 'ut' is considered legit (it's in the TWL dictionary), and it's defined as "the syllable once generally used for the first tone or keynote of a scale and sometimes for the tone now commonly superseded by do". In other words it's an archaic solfege syllable. It isn't even in use anymore, lol. Yet commonly used solfege syllables sung by probably hundreds of thousands of music students the world over every day are excluded. It's kind of mysterious and arbitrary.

Whatev. I give up.

Pataphysical
adj. form of pataphysics

@lexulous You have many solfège syllables in your dictionary, but you are missing some of the 'movable do"chromatic syllables.

Chromatic solfège syllables can be either 'raised' or 'lowered' depending on whether you are ascending the musical scale or descending. Each non diatonic pitch (the black keys on the piano in the key of 'C') has two names (enharmonic spelling). The syllable you sing depends on the direction of the melody. You have some of these, but not all.

You are missing the following: ri (half step above re), ra (half step below re), fi (half step above fa), le (half step below la), se (half step below sol), and te (half step below ti).
