Let's say you are play a C major chord with the following notes, lowest to highest: E,G,C (first inversion)
then G,C,E (second inversion)

What is the name for C,E,G ? (That is a non inverted chord)

I like "grondligging" MUCH better than "root".

What are some other cool sounding dutch words for everyday theory things?
