The '''hemifamity family''' of [[rank-3 temperament|rank-3]] [[regular temperament|temperaments]] [[tempering out|tempers out]] [[5120/5103]] ({{monzo|legend=1| 10 -6 1 -1 }}), the hemifamity comma. These temperaments divide an exact or approximate septimal quartertone, [[36/35]] into two equal steps, each representing [[81/80]][[~]][[64/63]], the syntonic comma or the septimal comma. Therefore, classical and septimal intervals are found by the same [[chain of fifths]] inflected by the same comma to the opposite sides. In addition we may identify [[10/7]] by the augmented fourth (C–F#) and [[50/49]] by the [[Pythagorean comma]].  
The '''aberschismic family''' of [[rank-3 temperament|rank-3]] [[regular temperament|temperaments]] [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[aberschisma]] ({{monzo|legend=1| 10 -6 1 -1 }}, [[ratio]]: [[5120/5103]]).  


Hemifamity can be further tempered to [[garibaldi]], which expands the interpretations of 81/80~64/63 to include the Pythagorean comma (collapsing to a rank-2 structure), or alternatively, hemifamity can be seen as liberating the syntonic-septimal comma from garibaldi's chain of fifths.

It is therefore very handy to adopt an additional module of accidentals such as arrows to represent the syntonic~septimal comma, in which case we have [[5/4]] at the down major third (C–vE) and [[7/4]] at the down minor seventh (C–vBb).  
Aberschismic (formerly ''hemifamity'') divides an exact or approximate septimal quartertone, [[36/35]] into two equal steps, each representing [[81/80]][[~]][[64/63]], the syntonic comma or the septimal comma. Therefore, classical and septimal intervals are found by the same [[chain of fifths]] inflected by the same comma to the opposite sides. In addition we may identify [[10/7]] with the augmented fourth (C–F♯) and [[50/49]] with the [[Pythagorean comma]] (C–B♯′).

Strong extensions of hemifamity are [[#Pele|pele]], [[#Laka|laka]], [[#Akea|akea]], and [[#Lono|lono]]. The rest are weak extensions. Using the arrow to represent the syntonic~septimal comma, pele finds the [[11/8]] at the down diminished fifth (C–vGb); laka, up augmented third (C–^E#); akea, double-up fourth (C–^^F); lono, triple-down augmented fourth (C–v<sup>3</sup>F#). All these extensions follow the trend of tuning the fifth a little sharp. Thus a successful mapping of 13 can be found by fixing the [[13/11]] at the minor third (C–Eb), tempering out [[352/351]], [[847/845]], and [[2080/2079]].

A notable 2.3.5.7.19 subgroup extension, counterpyth, is given right below.
A notable 2.3.5.7.19-subgroup extension, counterpyth, is considered in [[#Subgroup extensions]].  
 
=== Counterpyth ===
{{Main| Counterpyth }}
 
Developed analogous to [[parapyth]], counterpyth is an extension of hemifamity with an even milder fifth, as it finds [[19/15]] at the major third (C–E) and [[19/10]] at the major seventh (C–B). Notice the factorization {{nowrap| 5120/5103 {{=}} ([[400/399]])⋅([[1216/1215]]) }}. Other important ratios are [[21/19]] at the diminished third (C–Ebb) and [[19/14]] at the augmented third (C–E#).
 
It can be further extended via the mappings of laka or akea, while working less well with pele or lono due to their much sharper fifths.

{{Main| Laka }}


Laka can be described as the {{nowrap| 41 & 53 & 58 }} temperament, tempering out [[540/539]], and finds the interval class of 11 at the up augmented third (C–^E#). [[Gene Ward Smith]] considered it a [[17-limit]] temperament, assigning the vanishing of [[442/441]] ({{nowrap| 41g & 53 & 58 }}) as the main extension. It should be noted that {{nowrap| 41 & 53g & 58 }} also makes for a possible extension.

Tuning Group | ''Laka 17-limit minimax planar temperament'']</ref> Indeed, laka makes most sense as a 2.3.5.7.11.13.19-[[subgroup]] temperament, skipping prime 17, as the 19 is accurate and easily available in a 24-tone scale. [[152edo]] makes for an excellent tuning, using the 152f val for prime 13.  
 
<blockquote>
It's the way the numbers fall. The Laka geometry happens to work reasonably well in the 13-limit but not so well in the 17-limit. There isn't one obvious 17-limit extension and none of them are competitive with other 17-limit temperaments.

Lono tempers out [[176/175]] and may be described as the {{nowrap| 46 & 53 & 58 }} temperament, finding the interval class of 11 at the triple-down augmented fourth (C–v<sup>3</sup>F#). [[111edo]] is a great tuning for it. [[157edo]] is a viable alternative, which is almost as good.  
Lono tempers out [[176/175]] and may be described as the {{nowrap| 46 & 53 & 58 }} temperament, finding the interval class of 11 at the triple-down augmented fourth (C–v<sup>3</sup>F♯). It notably also tempers out [[8019/8000]], thus setting 11/10, 10/9, 9/8, and 8/7 a comma apart from each other. [[111edo]] is a great tuning for it. [[157edo]] is a viable alternative, which is almost as good.

=== Counterpyth (2.3.5.7.19) ===
[[File:Lattice Counterpyth RTT.png|thumb|Lattice for counterpyth.]]
Inspired by [[Margo Schulter]]'s [[parapyth]], counterpyth was named and first explored by [[Flora Canou]] in 2024. It is an extension of aberschismic with an even milder fifth, as it finds [[19/15]] at the major third (C–E) and [[19/10]] at the major seventh (C–B), taking advantage of the factorization {{nowrap| 5120/5103 {{=}} ([[400/399]])⋅([[1216/1215]]) }}. Other important ratios are [[21/19]] at the diminished third (C–E𝄫) and [[19/14]] at the augmented third (C–E♯).
It can be further extended via the mappings of laka or akea, while working less well with pele or lono due to their much sharper fifths.
