Intervals categories of [[harmonic class|HC19]] are relatively clear. [[19/16]] is most commonly considered a minor third, as 1–19/16–3/2 is an important {{w|tertian}} chord. The [[Functional Just System]] and [[Helmholtz–Ellis notation]] agree. However, 19/16 may act as an augmented second in certain cases. This is more complex on its own but may simplify certain combinations with other intervals, especially if [[17/16]] is considered an augmented unison and/or if [[23/16]] is considered an augmented fourth. Perhaps most interestingly, [[Sagittal notation]] provides an accidental to enharmonically spell intervals of HC19 this way.
