  Speaker 1: a dumb and kind of lazy on our part. Diatonic
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: scale as five whole steps and two half steps in
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: the scale, So what we gave you in that order
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: would be an a minor scale, and if we had
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: started with C it would have been correct. But you
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: don't just throw sharps and flats in. I made that
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: as a flippant remark, and I'm sure there's a way

  Speaker 1: to word it better to say that what are the
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: I don't know letters of the alphabad that make up
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: a diatonic scale, with or without sharps or flats. But
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: what we're gonna do is go back and switch that
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: out for another question, because it's just it's just wrong
