The 5-limit interval 15625/15552, which is sometimes called the "kleisma", is tempered out in [[Kleismic_family|Hanson temperament]] and the kleismic family. Tempering it equates a stack of six 6/5's and a single 3/1.

[[Category:Stub]]
'''15625/15552''', which is sometimes called the '''kleisma''', is the [[small comma|small]] [[5-limit]] [[comma]] that separates a stack of six classic minor thirds of [[6/5]] with [[3/1]], or a stack of five 6/5s with [[5/2]], or a stack of three diptolemaic chromatic semitones ([[25/24]]) with the Pythagorean whole tone ([[9/8]]). It is also the difference between the classic chromatic semitone ([[25/24]]) and the greater diesis ([[648/625]]), which is also known as the diminished comma. Like the [[magic comma]], instead of being tempered out in [[12edo]], it is inflated to an entire semitone—six 6/5's make an augmented eleventh (18 steps), while 3/1 is a perfect tweltfth (19 steps); conversely, 25/24 is mapped to a semitone while 648/625 is tempered out. Its [[square superparticular #Glossary|S-expression]] of S25<sup>2</sup> × S26 directly implies that it is expressible as ([[25/24]])<sup>2</sup>/([[27/25]]).
