A '''sonhar tuning'''{{idiosyncratic}} (''pronounced "sonyar"'') is any scale or [[temperament]] which uses or approximates the JI [[subgroup]] 5.11.13.31.

A '''wijzerplaat scale'''{{idiosyncratic}} (''pronounced "why, ser as in deserve, plat as in platypus"'') is any scale which is built by combining a [[MOS scale]] generated by 5\31, a MOS scale generated by 11\31, and a MOS scale generated by 13\31. (''Where n\31 is n steps of [[31edo]] or another 31-tone [[equal tuning]]''.)

All of these scales are tempered by definition. Sometimes multiple MOSes may generate the same tone, which is why when you combine an x-tone, y-tone and z-tone MOS, the total number of tones/octave may still be less than (x+y+z).
