Hello, expert!
About determiner "the" and preposition "of" in the expression "the musical scale of C major".
I don't feel it sounds right "The musical scale of C major",
(1) What intention, sense, has the preposition "of" on it? That's because what I know about "of" is that it connects a word giving the sense of belonging to it, as "The smeel of the child", indicating that the smell belongs to the child. In this case of the tittle, It's like "of" is specifying the scale, what scale is,
(2) Can I say "the musical scale C major", without "of"?
(3) I'd like to know if I can say "the Musical Scale of the C major"?
(4)I'd like to know if I can change the tittle to "About the determiner "the" and the preposition "of"[...]".
Thank you so much!!!! S2.
