In [[aberrismic theory]], '''penslen''' (from ''pentawood'' and ''slendric''; in aberrismic systematic nomenclature '''slen5m''') is the 16-note ternary scale step pattern LmsLmsLsmLsmLsms with [[step signature]] 5L5m6s. It is the only [[diregular]] scale with this step signature (since the diregular scale with a given step signature is always unique if it exists).

Penslen is comprised of two 8-note generator arcs. Each generator is a 3-step supermajor second (L + m + s), interpreted as 8/7, and the offset is an 8-step interval. The fifth is 9 steps and is a stack of three 8/7 generators. When you temper out [[1029/1024]], this fifth is interpreted as [[3/2]].

[[Portent]] is the temperament 11-lim[1029/1024, 385/384], and interprets the 8-step interval as an [[Interseptimal interval|ultrafourth]] [[48/35]] or [[11/8]].

In this temperament, 10/7 is tempered close to 23/16 by tempering out 161/160.
In this temperament, the 8-step offset is ~23/16 tempered together with 10/7 by tempering out 161/160.

(However, Inthar recommends interpreting the scale in 2.3.7.13.17.23 for higher accuracy, interpreting the ~5/4 as ~64/51 and not as ~5/4.)


Penslen in this temperament is represented by [[46edo]]'s 5:3:1 and [[67edo]]'s 7:4:2 tunings.
