W means whole step also called a tone or T. H means half step also called a semitone or S. W and T are equivalent. H and S are equivalent. A whole step equals 2 semitones. A half step equals 1 semitone. W means whole step and H means half step in mode interval formulas. To construct any modal scale choose a starting note and apply each interval step in the formula in sequence to arrive at the next note.
