'''Monocot''' is a temperament archetype where the generator is a [[3/2]] perfect fifth, and the period is a [[2/1]] octave. In other words, it is the standard chain of fifths, repeating every octave. Monocot temperaments usually generate the (mos)diatonic scale ([[5L 2s]]) and one of its chromatic children ([[5L 7s]] or [[7L 5s]]) (though there are exotempered exceptions such as [[mavila]] ([[2L 5s]]) and [[trienstonian]] ([[5L 3s]])) and as such they are very commonly used and are a well-explored category of temperaments.

=== Trienstonian ===

T[[Trienstonian|rienstonian]] is an exotemperament where the fifth is sharpened so that the major sixth is [[7/4]]. This is thus tuned best with tunings around or sharp of [[5edo]], which do not generate a (usable) diatonic scale.
