Faraneit music, particularly that of Lescealh, is typified by two main scale forms: Dakeh Vah (the Common Chord) and the Bokah Dakeh (the Bokeih Chord). The Dakeh Vah in turn has to variant chords, the Dakeh Vah Sein (the Greater Common Chord) and the Dakeh Vah Fhean (the Lesser Common Chord).

Dakeh Vah Sein

The most widespread chord, this is based on the Dakeh Vah, which in turn when viewed through the western 12-tone system can be deconstructed as:

Note 1 -threesteps- Note 2 -twosteps- Note 3 -twosteps- Note 4 -twosteps- Note 5

Or, for example, if Note 1 is equivalent to C, the entire scale would be CEGAB.

This chord then takes the notes 1, 3, and 4, or for our examplary C scale, CGA.

Dakeh Vah Fhean

This is the secondly most widespread thread, also based on the Dakeh Vah. It uses the same scale, but instead takes notes 1, 4, and 5, or for the example C scale, CAB.

Bokah Dakeh

What is refered to as the Bokah Dakeh is, in fact, a hamitonic scale, which are extremely rare on earth outside of the North African region.

Note 1 -onestep- Note 2 -twosteps- Note 3 -foursteps- Note 4 -onestep- Note 5

The main chord is formed with 145, on a C-based scale, CGAflat.
