Why did you document an interval in a temperament page??

'''531441/528125''', the '''dinos comma''', is a small 13-limit comma. It can be expressed as (9/5)/(325/243)<sup>2</sup>, (9/5)/(4/3)<sup>2</sup>/(325/324)<sup>2</sup> and (81/80)/(325/324)<sup>2</sup>, among other expressions.
==== Temperaments ====
Tempering out this comma means equating a stack of two 325/243 (tridecimal marvelous fourth) with 9/5. This comma is tempered out in some 13-limit temperaments, e.g. flattone.
==== Etymology ====
The name "dinos" is proposed by Dummy index in 2024. It means: "miNOr Seventh is divided into 2 equal parts". The same argument holds for 3136/3125 = (9/5)/(75/56)<sup>2</sup> (hemimean comma) and 589824/588245 = (9/5)/(343/256)^2 (hewuermera comma), but the comma is no-twos and requires only one additional prime base (3.5 for 9/5 and additional .13 for the comma).

The tetrameantone temperament is a nonoctave meantone temperament, tempering out the 81/80 in the 4.3.5 subgroup and repeating at the double octave 4/1. It is generated by 4/3 and, like in normal meantone temperament, 4 of them make a 8/5 plus an octave.

Tetrameantone on tritave

Tritave-repeating tetrameantone (3.4.5 subgroup) is made by cutting off the 4/3 interval range of the tetratave scale. extension will start at 3.4.5.14 subgroup. If we want strict no-twos subgroup, will be 3.5.13.
