in first inversion major triads, where you should double the soprano instead.
okay, we know how to use inversions in four-part writing... but when can we use them?
the only rule regarding other than that, you can use
vii6 6
root position triads root position and first inversion
and first inversion triads essentially whenever you want!

is that diminished triads are its second inversion triads that
always placed in first inversion. have the big restrictions.
