In Music theory, the leading-tone (called the leading-note outside the US) is the seventh scale degree of any diatonic scale when the distance between it and the tonic is a single semitone.
In diatonic scales where there is a whole tone between the seventh scale degree and the tonic, the note is called the sub-tonic.
