So for example:
We have G as the root, B as the third, and D as the fifth, and F as the seventh, so it would identified as "Mm7" because the triad is Major and the seventh is minor.
Here's the confusing part: do I identify it in the way I mentioned above or do I identify the chord as a dominant seventh chord since the triad is major and the seventh is minor?
