The [[superparticular]] interval '''28/27''', '''septimal third-tone''' has the seventh [[triangular number]] as a numerator and is the difference between [[15/14]] and [[10/9]], [[9/8]] and [[7/6]], [[9/7]] and [[4/3]], [[3/2]] and [[14/9]], [[12/7]] and [[16/9]], and [[9/5]] and [[28/15]].

This interval is very accurately approximated by [[19edo]] (1\19), and hence the [[enneadecal]] temperament.

28/27 is traditionally called the '''small septimal chroma''', perhaps for its proximity (and conflation in systems like [[septimal meantone]]) with the classic chroma, [[25/24]]. However, it is a ''[[diatonic semitone]]'' in just intonation notation systems such as [[Sagittal notation]], [[Helmholtz–Ellis notation]], and the [[Functional Just System]], viewed as the [[256/243|Pythagorean limma (256/243)]] altered by the [[64/63|septimal comma (64/63)]]. Hence, it may be described as the '''septimal minor second''' or '''septimal subminor second''' if treated as an interval in its own right. This is analogous to the septimal major second [[8/7]], which has the same relationship with [[9/8]], and such classification suggests the function of a strong leading tone added to the traditional harmony.

If treated as a [[comma]] to be tempered out, 28/27 may be called the '''trienstonic comma''', which leads to the '''trienstonic temperaments'''. See [[Trienstonic clan]] for the rank-2 clan of temperaments where it is tempered out.
