:* 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 of commas tempered out in this system

| This interval is not only both two thirds of Pythagorean Major Second and the approximation of the Large Limma or Diptolemaic Limma in this system, but also a type of supraminor second, and is thus used accordingly.

* Approximates the [[27/25|Large Limma]], and thus...
:* It frequently acts as a Diatonic semitone in Western-Classical-based harmony
*  Approximates the [[13/12|Tridecimal Neutral Third]], and thus...
:* It demonstrates two-third-tone functionality- especially in relation to this system's approximation of the Pythagorean Major Second- due to the combination of commas tempered out in this system
:* It demonstrates trienthird functionality- namely in relation to this system's approximation of the Pythagorean Major Third- due to the combination of commas tempered out in this system
* Is found in 53edo as that system's Supraminor Third, and can thus be used to create identical-sounding harmonic gestures in this system
