''It is recommended to read the page [[regular temperament]] first to understand this section.''
39edo's [[3/2|perfect fifth]] is 5.8{{c}} sharp. Together with its best [[5/4|classical major third]] which is the familiar 400{{c}} of [[12edo]], we get a system which [[tempering out|tempers out]] the [[diesis]] (128/125) and the [[amity comma]] (1600000/1594323). We have two choices for a [[map]] for [[7/1|7]], but the sharp one works better with the [[3/1|3]] and [[5/1|5]], which adds [[64/63]] and [[126/125]] to the list. [[Tempering out]] both 128/125 and 64/63 makes 39et, in some few ways, allied to [[12et]] in [[support]]ing [[augene]], and is in fact, an excellent choice for an augene tuning, but one difference is that 39et has a fine [[11/1|11]], and adding it to consideration we find that the equal temperament tempers out [[99/98]] and [[121/120]] also. This choice for 39et is the 39d [[val]] {{val| 39 62 91 '''110''' 135 }}.
