'''192/125''', the '''classic diminished sixth''', is a [[5-limit]] [[interval]] of about 743{{cent}}.
'''192/125''', the '''classic(al) diminished sixth''' or '''triptolemaic diminished sixth''', is a [[5-limit]] [[interval]] of about 743{{cent}}. It is the [[8/5|classical minor sixth (8/5)]] flattened by the [[25/24|classical chroma (25/24)]], so it keeps the term ''classical''. It is also the [[262144/177147|Pythagorean diminished sixth (262144/177147)]] sharpened by three [[81/80|syntonic commas]], which lends itself to the term ''triptolemaic''.
