→Harmonic Function: Leading Chord
<small>''Where the {{dim}} symbol cannot be made, such as on a standard keyboard without using special character codes, or to avoid ambiguity, you can use "dim" (ex. Bdim) to indicate the diminished quality of the chord. Then a half diminished 7th can be written as Bm7b5''.</small>
The vii chord is called the '''leading chord'''. Harmonically, it has a ''dominant'' function, sharing the leading tone and 2nd of the scale with the V chord(B and D in the key of C Major).
