'''Ditave''' is an alternative name for the interval [[Octave|Octave]], which was proposed to neutralize the terminology against the predominance of 7-tone scales. The name is derived from the numeral prefix ''δι''- ''di-'' (Greek for two) in analogy to "[[Tritave|Tritave]]" (3/1). A brief but complementary description about it is [[:purdal:Ditave|here]].

'''Diapason''' is another term also sometimes applied to the 2/1 interval (octave). It is also of Greek origin, but not related to the number two; instead it is formed from ''διά'' ''dia'' + ''<span style="">πασων </span>''''pason'', meaning something like "through all the notes".
