Line 264:

::* Can be used readily in both melodic and harmonic voice-leading in general

::* Can occur as the distance between two notes in a single chord in Western-Classical-based polypedal harmony, though this causes dissonance, and thus requires resolution

::* Has the potential to move directly back down to the Tonic as a ~~reverse leading-tone~~, though in non-meantone systems like this one, such a gesture using this interval has a slightly more tense feel

::* Has the potential to move directly back down to the Tonic as a Contralead, though in non-meantone systems like this one, such a gesture using this interval has a slightly more tense feel

::* Can serve as a possible interval between the Tonic and the root of a Neapolitan chord

Line 326:

::* Is one of the staples of both melodic and harmonic voice-leading

::* Can occur as the distance between two notes in a single chord in Western-Classical-based polypedal harmony, though this causes crowding, and thus requires resolution

::* Has the potential to move directly back down to the Tonic as a ~~reverse leading-tone~~, though in non-meantone systems like this one, such a gesture using this interval has a slightly more lax and natural feel

::* Has the potential to move directly back down to the Tonic as a Contralead, though in non-meantone systems like this one, such a gesture using this interval has a slightly more lax and natural feel

| Lesser Supraminor Second, Tendoretromean Augmented Prime

| Ed>↓, D#↑\

| ~~In addition to its properties as~~ a ~~type~~ of ~~supraminor second~~, this ~~interval is also one third~~ of a Ptolemaic Major Third in this system and is thus used ~~accordingly.~~

| This interval...

* Approximates the [[14/13|Tridecimal Supraminor Second]] and a similar 11-limit Supraminor Second that is reached by subtracting the syntonic comma from the Alpharabian Tendoneutral Second, and thus...

:* As is typical of a Supraminor Second, it is not sharp enough to truly sound neutral, but is nevertheless sharp enough to be distinct from a Minor Second

:* It demonstrates trienthird functionality- namely in relation to this system's approximation of the Ptolemaic Major Third- due to the combination commas tempered out in this system

* Approximates a complex [[17-limit]] interval relative to the Tonic and can be used...

:* As an unexpected option for a Diatonic-type semitone in Western-Classical-based harmony

* Is the closest approximation of [[19edo]]'s Minor Second found in this system, and thus...

:* Can be used in melodic and harmonic gestures reminiscent of those found in that system, since such moves on their own don't work the exact same way in this system
