In music theory, a major scale is generally considered to have a consonant, stable sound. This is primarily due to the intervals within the scale, which are built from whole and half steps in a specific pattern (W-W-H-W-W-W-H, where W stands for whole step and H for half step).

To elaborate:
- Dissonance refers to intervals or chords that create tension and a sense of needing resolution. Common dissonant intervals include the minor second and the tritone.
- Melodic refers to the aspect of music that pertains to the arrangement of pitches and how they move or relate to each other, which can be consonant or dissonant depending on the context.
- Diminished chords are often viewed as dissonant due to the minor third and diminished fifth interval created in their construction.

Therefore, major relationships and chords, including major triads, are typically classified as consonant rather than dissonant, melodic, or diminished.
