Bjeheondian music often appears "microtonal" or "xenharmonic" from our modern Western perspective, though pentatonic-like scales can be used. In modern times it is usually notated based on a diatonic-based notation with accidentals for non-fifth-based notes. However, real-world intonational practices are not fixed to a particular tuning and use traditional microtonal inflections or fine-tuned intervals, and they differ by region and context. Both court and folk music use melodies based on either our pentatonic scale, or the semiquartal (5L 4s MOS) scale, the nine-note scale LLSLSLSLS which is an extension of the familiar pentatonic scale; restriction of melodies to the pentatonic scale shows up sometimes. Diatonic-like melodic shapes sometimes arise as a consequence of altering the semiquartal scale. | Bjeheondian music often appears "microtonal" or "xenharmonic" from our modern Western perspective, though pentatonic-like scales can be used.

A ''hanier'' /hɐ'nɪɾ/ (literally 'stepping'; Wdm. ''hănier'') consists of a set of nine movable pitches plus a choice of which subset to emphasize, either a set of two ''pezům'' /pɛ'zuəm/ (pentachords, lit. 'set of five'; Nurian ''seałŧaļ'', Wdm. ''păsuam'') or a framework based on a ''buri'' /by'ɾi/ (lit. 'sprint'; Wdm. ''büri''), a pentatonic subset where 1\19 is not used as a step. Different styles encourage different subset use. | A ''hanier'' /hɐ'nɪɾ/ (literally 'stepping'; Wdm.
