The name '''antitriatonic'''{{idio}} was coined by [[User:ArrowHead294|ArrowHead294]], as a back-formation from "diatonic" with di- being interpreted as 2 (the [[2/1|octave]]) and tri- being interpreted as 3 (the [[3/1|tritave]]). The "anti-" prefix is used in the same way that octave-equivalent [[2L 5s]] scales are called "antidiatonic", adopted from the common use of the term to refer to diatonic but with the large and small steps switched. It is not an official name in [[TAMNAMS]].
