'''Father''' is a very coarse, simplistic, and inaccurate [[exotemperament]]. It [[Tempering out|tempers out]] [[16/15]], the classical diatonic semitone. This means the [[5/4|classical major third (5/4)]] is conflated with the [[4/3|perfect fourth (4/3)]], making it one that challenges the very notion of JI approximation, and playing harmony in it, it sounds only remotely reminiscent of the [[5-limit]] no matter how it is tuned. If one could get their head around this way of hearing intervals, they may as well take a look at the 7-limit interpretation, where it tempers out [[28/27]] and [[36/35]].

The main interest in this temperament is in its [[mos scale]]s, featuring [[3L 2s|antipentic (3L 2s)]] and [[5L 3s|oneirotonic (5L 3s)]] when properly tuned. It is likely the case that those scales are often chosen first, and only later is each step associated with a ratio consistent with this temperament.

The main interest in this temperament is in its [[mos scale]]s, featuring [[3L 2s|antipentic (3L 2s)]] and [[5L 3s|oneirotonic (5L 3s)]] when properly tuned. It is likely the case that those scales are often chosen first, and only later is each step associated with a ratio consistent with this temperament: a common reason to choose father as a temperament is to justify using suspended chords as the main form of harmony, as in 5edo or 13edo.
