* 732¢–760¢ – '''semitenth''' – an interval of this size is around half the size of a minor tenth (i. e., an octave plus a minor third). Another possible name is sesquifourth (since this is also about one and a half times the size of a perfect fourth). | * 732¢–760¢ – '''semitenth''' – an interval of this size is around half the size of a minor tenth (i. e., an octave plus a minor third).

* 940¢–960¢ – '''semitwelfth''' – an interval of this size is around half the size of a perfect twelfth (i.e. a compound perfect fifth, or tritave). All even [[edt]]s have a semitwelfth of approximately 951 cents, analogous to the 600 cent tritone shared by all even edos. | * 940¢–960¢ – '''semitwelfth''' – an interval of this size is around half the size of a perfect twelfth (i.e. a compound perfect fifth, or tritave).
