A '''neji''' or '''NEJI''' (pronounced /nɛdʒi/ "nedgy"; for "near-equivalent [[just intonation]]" or "near-equal just intonation") is a [[JI]] scale that is "nearly-equivalent" to an associated ''target scale'' (or ''target'' for short). Nejis are designed with a focus on the harmonic resonance of the pitches in mind w.r.t their foreseen musical use. | A '''neji''' or '''NEJI''' (which can be pronounced /nɛdʒi/ "nedgy"; for "near-equivalent [[just intonation]]" or "near-equal just intonation") is a [[JI]] scale that is "nearly-equivalent" to an associated ''target scale'' (or ''target'' for short).

The concept behind nejis is probably first proposed by [[George Secor]] in 2002<ref>[http://www.anaphoria.com/secor-blarney.html GEORGE SECOR - A BIT O' BLARNEY]</ref>, where he called it a '''quasi-equal rational tuning'''. | The concept behind nejis is probably first proposed by [[George Secor]] in 2002<ref>[http://www.anaphoria.com/secor-blarney.html GEORGE SECOR - A BIT O' BLARNEY]</ref>, where he called it a '''quasi-equal rational tuning'''. | ||
