192/125, the classic(al) diminished sixth or triptolemaic diminished sixth, is a 5-limit interval of about 743 ¢. It is the classical minor sixth (8/5) flattened by the classical chroma (25/24), so it keeps the term classical. It is also the Pythagorean diminished sixth (262144/177147) sharpened by three syntonic commas, which lends itself to the term triptolemaic.
