'''14/13''', the '''tridecimal 2/3-tone''' or '''trienthird''' (one-third third) is a somewhat exotic 13-limit interval measuring about 128.3¢, which is almost exactly 1/3 of a [[5/4]] major third- a stack of three trienthirds falling short of a 5/4 major third by a [[10985/10976|cantonisma]].

The trienthird was a favorite interval of [[Wikipedia:Avicenna|Avicenna]] (Ibn Sina) for his scale constructions, and may be considered a smaller size of neutral second (a second between major and minor). Thus intervals close in size to it have been called '''sinaics''' by [[Zhea Erose]]. It may be called the '''tridecimal supraminor second''' as well, analogous to [[21/13]] being the ''tridecimal supraminor sixth''.

The trienthird was a favorite interval of &lt;a class="wiki_link_ext" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avicenna" rel="nofollow"&gt;Avicenna&lt;/a&gt; (Ibn Sina) for his scale constructions, and may be considered a smaller size of neutral second (a second between major and minor.)&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;</pre></div>
In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], 14/13 represents the difference in size between the tridecimal minor third of [[13/11]] and undecimal major third of [[14/11]]. It is also the difference between [[13/10]] and [[7/5]]; [[13/12]] and [[7/6]]; [[13/9]] and [[14/9]], and of course [[13/8]] and [[7/4]] and the inversions of the above. As it combines the primes 7 and 13, it appears in JI subgroup tunings involving those primes.
