interval question (natural minor scale)
What interval is f# in the key of dminor (d to f#)? Im thinkin it's a diminished 4th
I was improvising over a backing track which said it was in the key of d, was just noodling with d minor pentatonic and natural minor scale when I hit the note from d to f# and it sounded sweet, just interested what interval/note it is Cheers |

So does it have to be counted as if it was the major scale, if I count up the scale degrees in the dminor scale it goes d, e, f, g
Im still new to understanding intervals btw |

The key is D minor. You hit an F#, which is an accidental. Nothing wrong with that. No need to think of it as being major cause you won't be playing major, you're playing in the key of D minor. Accidentals are the spice of life or something like that.
