English: In music, the Phrygian dominant scale is the fifth mode of the harmonic minor scale, the fifth being the dominant. This scale occurs in Indian, Middle Eastern, Eastern European, Central Asian, and Flamenco music. It is common in Arabic and Egyptian music, in which it is called Hijaz-Nahawand or Hijaz maqam, and used in Hebrew prayers and Klezmer music, where it is known as Ahava Rabbah, Freygish or just the "Jewish scale", and is called Dastgāh-e Homāyoun in Iran. It is the most common scale in North Indian classical raga Hijaz Bhairav (Basant Mukhari) and South Indian raga Vakulabharanam.

Deutsch: Die phrygisch-dominante Tonleiter (oder kurz Phrygisch-Dur) wird auch je nach Zweck oder Region auch die Orientalische, die Spanische, die Jüdische oder kombiniert die Spanisch-Phrygische Tonleiter genannt. In diesen Sprachen gibt es noch andere Bezeichnungen: Ahava Rabboh (hebräisch, auch: Ahava Rabbah, Ahava Raba), Freygisch (de:jiddisch), oder Hijaz (türkisch/arabisch).
