Just intonation intervals are named in the scheme "m-th division-into-n", meaning n/(n-m), with "division into n" part being a Windermere word with an infix {{angbr|''if''}}. (For example, ''bifooþ nyðjar'' means 7/4.)
Just intonation intervals are named in the scheme "m-th division-into-n", meaning n/(n-m). The "division into n" part is the Windermere number word with an infix {{angbr|''if''}}. (For example, ''bifooþ nyðjar'' means 7/4.) If the "m-th" part is missing, then the interval is assumed to be the superparticular ratio n/(n-1).
