music theory as is usually taught says that you must have 3 or more notes to make a chord. i imagine this is based off of triads being the specific group of 3 notes that make up all basic chords.

obviously power chords sometimes only have 2 notes but are still called chords.
the proper way to describe two notes played simultaneously i guess would be to call it an interval not a chord.

i generally just call it a chord tho.
