Hyphenation for 'harmonized'

Showing how to split the syllables of 'harmonized'.

Syllabification or syllabication is the separation of a word into syllables, whether spoken or written. The written separation is usually marked by a hyphen when using English orthography (e.g., syl-la-ble) and with a period when transcribing in the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA). For presentation purposes, typographers may use an interpunct, or a special-purpose "hyphenation point".

At the end of a line, a word is separated in writing into parts conventionally called "syllables" if it does not fit and if moving it to the next line would make the first line much shorter than the others. This can be a particular problem with very long words. Word processing has automated the process of justification, making syllabification of shorter words often superfluous.

In music, harmonization is the chordal accompaniment to a line or melody: "Using chords and melodies together, making harmony by stacking scale tones as triads". A harmonized scale can be created by using each note of a musical scale as a root note for a chord and then by taking other tones within the scale building the rest of a chord. For example, using an Ionian (major scale)the root note would become the I major chord, the second note the ii minor chord, the third note the iii minor chord, the fourth note the IV major chord, the fifth note the V major chord (or even a dominant 7th), the sixth note the vi minor chord, the seventh note the vii diminished chord and the octave would be a I major chord. Using the minor (aeolian mode) one would have:i minor, ii diminished, (♭)III major, iv minor, v minor, (♭)VI major, (♭)VII major and the i minor an octave higher.
