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

One important sub-range is given by stipulating that two semifourth generators must make a ''meantone'' fourth; i.e. that four fifths should approximate a [[5/4]] major third. This can be considered the [[19edo]] (4\19)-to-[[24edo]] (5\24) range, i.e. parahard semiquartal, which also contains [[43edo]] (9\43) and [[62edo]] (13\62). Parahard semiquartal can be given an RTT interpretation known as [[godzilla]].

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.
