The [[TAMNAMS]] convention, used by this article, uses '''semiquartal''' (derived from 'half a fourth') for the 5L 4s pattern. Another attested name is '''hemifourths'''.

Hard-of-basic tunings have [[Semifourth|semifourths]] as generators, between 1\5 (240¢) and 3\14 (257.14¢), where two of them create a diatonic 4th. The generator could be viewed as a 15/13, and the resulting "ultramajor" chords and "inframinor" triads could be viewed as approximating 10:13:15 and 26:30:39. See [[Arto and Tendo Theory]].

Soft-of-basic tunings have semifourths that are between 3\14 (257.14¢) and 2\9 (266.67¢), creating a "[[mavila]]" or "[[superdiatonic]]" 4th. [[23edo]]'s 5\23 (260.87¢) is an example of this generator.
