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

This article uses the convention JKLMNOPQR = LSLSLSLSL. The accidentals & and @ are used for raising and lowering by the chroma = L − S, respectively.

The familiar harmonic entropy minimum with this MOS pattern is [[Meantone family#Godzilla|godzilla]], in which a generator is [[8/7]] or [[7/6]] (tempered to be the same interval) so two of them make a [[4/3]]. However, in addition to godzilla (tempering out 81/80) and the 2.3.7 temperament [[Chromatic pairs#Semaphore|semaphore]], there is also a weird scale called "[[Pseudo-semaphore|pseudo-semaphore]]", in which two different flavors of [[3/2]] exist in the same scale: an octave minus two generators makes a sharp 3/2, and two octaves minus seven generators makes a flat 3/2.

The 2.3.13/5 [[barbados]] temperament is another possible interpretation.
