A '''neji''' or '''NEJI''' (pronounced /nɛdʒi/ "nedgy"; for "near-equal [[just intonation]]") is a [[circulating temperament]] which approximates an [[Equal-step tuning|equal tuning]] dividing a JI [[equave]] with a subset of a mode of the [[harmonic series]]. It is often informally used for a harmonic series approximation of any non-JI scale, e.g. "neji Lydian". | A '''neji''' or '''NEJI''' (pronounced /nɛdʒi/ "nedgy"; for "near-equal [[just intonation]]") is a [[circulating temperament]] which approximates an [[Equal-step tuning|equal tuning]] dividing a JI [[equave]] with a subset of a mode of the [[harmonic series]].
