The system of solfege actually took a couple of hundred years to perfect, however, the beginnings of the system was figured out by a Benedictine monk named Guido D'Arezzo, in the 11th century. His system consisted of six notes: Ut, Re, Mi, Fa, So and La. Since it was before the advent of harmony (and even polyphony) music was more modal and it took a while for that final "ti" note to be developed and used.
Solfege method.
Those syllables are called "solfege." Each syllable corresponds to a specific scale degree in the major scale.
You are referring to the syllables used in "solfege", the system of sight-singing and singing practice. The syllables are do (pronounced dough), re, mi, fa, sol, la, and ti (sometimes the last is si instead of ti). Think of "Doe, a Deer" from The Sound of Music. The syllables relate to each other according to the standard major diatonic scale, with the tonic on 'do'.
La is positioned between sol and ti on the solfege scale of music. La is no particular note itself, but rather is assigned to a different note depending the key of the music itself. Solfege is typically used in music to help learn the skill of sight-singing, in which each note is sung as a syllable. By memorizing the position and relative distance between solfege syllables, it is possible to become skilled in singing a piece of music with no assistance other than the sheet of music itself.
The song "Manang Biday" is a traditional Filipino folk song. In the key of C major, the solfege syllables for the melody would be: C - D - E - D - C - E - D - C for the first phrase, and G - F - E - D - C - E - D - C for the second phrase. These solfege syllables correspond to the notes in the C major scale: Do - Re - Mi - Re - Do - Mi - Re - Do for the first phrase, and Sol - Fa - Mi - Re - Do - Mi - Re - Do for the second phrase.
The use of syllables to substitute for notes is called solfege or solfeggio. Solfege is a music education system that assigns syllables to different pitches or scale degrees. It helps musicians develop their ear-training and sight-singing abilities by providing a way to vocalize and identify musical intervals. Commonly used syllables in solfege include do, re, mi, fa, sol, la, and ti.
