Traditionally, we use a [[5L 2s|diatonic]] system of interval classification. This works well in the [[5-limit]] and in [[meantone]]. However, in other systems like [[superpyth]], a pentatonic system of classification based on the [[2L 3s]] [[MOS scale]] may be preferred. In this page, we will develop a pentatonic version of the [[FJS]], starting from the [[3-limit]] and using [[formal comma]]s to reach higher limits.

We now look at ratios of 11, with [[33/32]] as our formal comma. By pentatonic interval classification, many undecimal ratios fall between two interval categories, the edges of which are the 5-limit intervals; thus they are called interpental, just like [[interseptimal]] intervals in diatonic classification.

By pentatonic interval classification, many undecimal ratios fall right between two interval categories, the edges of which are the 5-limit intervals; thus they are called interpental, just like [[interseptimal]] intervals in diatonic classification.
