# 732¢-760¢ -- semitenth -- an interval of this size is around half the size of a major tenth (i. e., compound major third). Another possible name is sesquifourth (since this is also about one and a half times the size of a perfect fourth). | # 732¢-760¢ -- semitenth -- an interval of this size is around half the size of a major tenth (i. e., compound major third).

# 940¢-960¢ -- semitwelfth -- an interval of this size is around half the size of a perfect twelfth (i e., a compound perfect fifth, or tritave). All even [[edt|edts]] have a semitwelfth of approximately 951 cents, analogous to the 600 cent tritone shared by all even edos. | # 940¢-960¢ -- semitwelfth -- an interval of this size is around half the size of a perfect twelfth (i e., a compound perfect fifth, or tritave).

This makes notating these intervals very easy as long as we have an agreed-upon symbol for "semi". | This makes notating these intervals very easy as long as we have an agreed-upon symbol for "semi". | ||
By analogy the tritone could also be called a semioctave, although the term tritone is so well-established that seems is little reason to change it now. | By analogy the tritone could also be called a semioctave, although the term tritone is so well-established that seems is little reason to change it now. A key difference is that the tritone is intermediate between two septimal ratios separated by a jubilisma (50:49), whereas the other interseptimal ranges listed above are between two septimal ratios separated by a slendro diesis (49:48). | ||
