Random information on the term “Avoid”:

In jazz theory, an avoid note is a scale degree which is considered especially dissonant relative to the harmony implied by the root chord, and is thus better avoided.

In major-key tonality the avoid note is the fourth diatonic scale step, or 11th, which is a minor ninth above the 3rd of the chord, and thus very harsh. In melody it is usually avoided, treated as a “scale approach note” or passing note, or sharpened. It is not available in harmony. The available tensions for a dominant seventh chord are 9, ♯11, and 13.

Taking C major as an example, the avoid notes are:
