The '''diaschismic-gothic equivalence continuum''', also referrable to as the ''diaschismic-tetracot equivalence continuum'', ''kleismic-tetracot equivalence continuum'', ''diaschismic-würschmidt equivalence continuum'', ''diaschismic-kleismic equivalence continuum'', or ''kleismic-würschmidt equivalence continuum'', is a [[equivalence continuum|continuum]] of [[5-limit]] [[regular temperament|temperaments]] that describes the set of all [[5-limit]] temperaments supported by [[34edo]].

All temperaments in the continuum satisfy (2048/2025)<sup>''n''</sup> ~ {{monzo| 27 -17 }}, equating a number of [[2048/2025|diaschismas (2048/2025)]] with the [[gothic comma]]. Varying ''n'' results in different temperaments listed in the table below. It converges to [[diaschismic]] as ''n'' approaches infinity. If we allow non-integer and infinite ''n'', the continuum describes the set of all 5-limit temperaments supported by 34edo due to it being the unique equal temperament that [[tempering out|tempers out]] both commas and thus tempers out all combinations of them. The just value of ''n'' is approximately 3.41464…, and temperaments having ''n'' near this value tend to be the most accurate ones.

The gothic comma is the characteristic [[3-limit]] comma tempered out in 34edo. Describing the continuum this way has notable advantages – in particular, due to being determined in terms of the 3-limit comma and the comma with the next lowest power of 5, twice the numerator of the value of ''n'' represents the number of generator steps required to reach the interval class of [[3/1|3]].
