Many of the harmonic functions carry over from diatonic, because the nonatonic scale has fifths and seconds similar to that of diatonic. The functions new to nonatonic are bolded; semi- is used for functions that are a semi-fourth below a diatonic function and similarly hemi- for semi-fourth above a diatonic function. Functions modulate naturally to other functions via fifths, semi-fourths, or sometimes naiadics (442 cents in 19edo).
