    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minor_seventh_chord

    In music, a minor seventh chord is a seventh chord composed of a root note, a minor third, a perfect fifth, and a minor seventh (1, ♭ 3, 5, ♭ 7). In other words, one could think of it as a minor triad with a minor seventh attached to it. [2] For example, the minor seventh chord built on A, commonly written as A− 7, has pitches A-C-E-G:

    For example, in the key of C major, the chord D minor seventh can be written as "2− 7", "2m 7", or "ii 7". "The musicians in Nashville use the Nashville Number System almost exclusively for conveying a song's structure and arrangement in the recording studio."

    The dominant seventh (V7) chord G7=(G,B,D,F) increases the tension with the tonic (I) chord C. Adding a minor seventh to a major triad creates a dominant seventh (denoted V7). In music theory, the "dominant seventh" described here is called a major-minor seventh, emphasizing the chord's construction rather than its usual function. [27]

    But this rule not only applies to major or minor chords, but also to seventh chords. For example, in the key in E minor, the tonic chord (E, G, B) becomes an E minor seventh chord (E, G, B, D), if the fourth note (D) is added to the triad. This applies to all other chords in the scale. [1] A mnemonic also exists in the circle of thirds.

    A ninth chord includes the seventh; without the seventh, the chord is not an extended chord but an added tone chord—in this case, an add 9. Ninths can be added to any chord but are most commonly seen with major, minor, and dominant seventh chords. The most commonly omitted note for a voicing is the perfect fifth.

    For instance, for a composer working in the C major key, a major ♭ III chord (e.g., an E ♭ major chord) would be borrowed, as this chord appears only in the key of C minor. Although borrowed chords could theoretically include chords taken from any key other than the home key, this is not how the term is used when a chord is described in ...
