'''144/125''', the '''classic diminished third''', about 245 [[cent]]s in size, is a just interval in the [[5-limit]]. It can be obtained by subtracting [[6/5]], the classic minor third, by [[25/24]], the classic chroma. In any [[kleismic]] system, it is tuned to an exact semifourth, tempered together with [[125/108]]. The [[university temperament]] treats it as a comma.
'''144/125''', the '''classic diminished third''', about 245 [[cent]]s in size, is a just interval in the [[5-limit]]. It can be obtained by subtracting [[6/5]], the classic minor third, by [[25/24]], the classic chroma. It is also the Pythagorean diminished third (65536/59049) flattened by three [[81/80|syntonic commas]], which lends itself to the term ''triptolemaic''.
