 [Todo: Interval names such as "2ndary seventh"]
 ====JI intervals====
-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).
-*rifaþ = 2/1
-*siftiw = 3/2
-*siþmeh = 4/3
-*mifuats = 5/4
-*tifah = 6/5
-*bifooþ = 7/6
-**bifooþ arn = 7/5
-**bifooþ nyðjar = 7/4
