The goal of TAMNAMS is to name and describe moment-of-symmetry scales, or mosses, agnostic of regular temperament theory. For example, the names ''flattone[7]'', ''meantone[7]'', ''pythagorean[7]'', and ''superpyth[7]'' all describe the same step pattern of 5L 2s, with different proportions of large and small steps. Under TAMNAMS parlance, these names can be described broadly as ''soft 5L 2s'' (for flattone and meantone) and ''hard 5L 2s'' (for pythagorean and superpyth), and to describe the step pattern regardless of step ratio or temperament, the name ''diatonic'' is given for the step pattern ''5L 2s'' itself. | The goal of TAMNAMS is to name and describe moment-of-symmetry scales, or mosses, agnostic of regular temperament theory.
