Can you give me an example of what you mean by “specify Major over minor?”

2025-07-15 13:42:04 +0000 UTCI think I understand but what would be the reason to specify major over minor if they are the same notes? Does it have to do with the difference in roman numeral function within the scale and resulting difference in resolution ? This is probably an obvious answer . I guess I can do a comparison myself to the sound distinction
