So where I'm confused is that it's mentioned that the Diatonic semitone is when you get a semitone interval with different letter names, but isn't a B to a C for example a chromatic interval since C should be sharp in the key of B major or minor?

Also, I would like to ask in regards to the minor scale is the minor third, sixth and seventh diatonic or chromatic? In other words is every minor interval chromatic or can it be Diatonic when looked at in perspective of the the minor scale from the tonic? I hope I'm making scene? If anyone could clarify this for me I would appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

I have trouble playing melody with chords. So I play the chords with LH and the melody with the RH. It gets boring after a while.
I wish I could play chord melody
