A '''neji''' or '''NEJI''' (pronounced /nɛdʒi/ "nedgy"; for "near-equal [[just intonation]]") is a [[circulating temperament]] which approximates an [[Equal-step tuning|equal tuning]] dividing a JI [[equave]] into JI scale steps. | A '''neji''' or '''NEJI''' (pronounced /nɛdʒi/ "nedgy"; for "near-equal [[just intonation]]") is a [[circulating temperament]] which approximates an [[Equal-step tuning|equal tuning]] dividing a JI [[equave]] into JI scale steps. | ||
Due to the influence of Zhea Erose who originated the term, ''neji'' often specifically refers to a subset of a mode of the [[harmonic series]]. The term may also informally be used for a harmonic series approximation of any non-JI scale, e.g. "neji Lydian". | Due to the influence of Zhea Erose who originated the term, ''neji'' often specifically refers to a subset of a mode of the [[harmonic series]] used to approximate an edo.
