Both the "semi-nth" names and the Greek-derived names above are less intuitive than they could be and require some amount of memorization. For this reason, Inthar has proposed the following terms that explicitly name the diatonic interval categories that the interseptimals fall between: | Both the "semi-nth" names and the Greek-derived names above are less intuitive than they could be and require some amount of memorization.

These names are inspired by analogous names for [[interordinal]]s in other mosses, but they refer to interval regions rather than exact intervals implied by a concrete mos tuning. | These names are inspired by analogous names for [[interordinal]]s in other mosses, but they refer to interval regions rather than exact intervals implied by a concrete mos tuning. | ||
