SYNONYM STUDY FOR HARMONY
Harmony, melody in music

from voices or musical instruments.
Harmony is the blending of simultaneous sounds
of different pitch or quality, making chords:

Melody is the rhythmical combination
of successive sounds of various pitch,

HISTORICAL USAGE OF HARMONY
Harmony comes into English via Latin harmonia
“conjunction, agreement among the various parts of the body
(in an explanation of the nature of the soul).”
Harmonia comes from Greek harmonía,
which has all of the Latin meanings
as well as many technical ones,
e.g., in music, “octave, mode, pitch (of the voice)”;
in philosophy, “framework of the universe, principle of union,”
and in the Pythagorean system,
the name of the number “three”;
in medicine, anatomy, and physiology,
“suture, union, temperament”;
in law and government,
“order, good order, settled arrangement, covenant, agreement.”
Harmoní a ultimately derives from
the very complicated Proto-Indo-European root ar-,
(a)re-, rē-, ṛ- (with still more variants) “to fit, fit together, join.”
