* [[7th Chords]]
== V/V Secondary Dominant ==<small>''also called borrowed dominant''</small> The most common borrowed chord is the V (or V7 ) of V chord, commonly notated as ''V/V'' or ''V7/V''.
===Notation===
If the D Major chord did not resolve to G Major, demonstrating its dominant functionality, we might alternatively analyze this as a II or borrowed major from some other key.
In the key of G Major, V/V would be an A Major chord. Let's look at both keys:
{|
|+
! !! V/V !! V !! I
|-
! C Major
| D || G || C
|-
! G Major
| A || D || G
|}
Notice that both progressions feature D - G. In G Major, it's V - I. In C Major, it's V/V - V. G Major is built on the fifth note of C Major; it is the ''V key''. In both progressions they contain the same basic dominant-resolution feel, yet by occurring at different parts of the V/V - V - I progression, they serve somewhat different functions.
