Alpha-pentacot temperaments typically generate the 3L 4s, 3L 7s, 3L 10s, and..."

There is no agreed-upon notation for alpha-pentacot, and constructing one by extending Pythagorean notation is complicated due to the fact that it does not split the chromatic or diatonic semitone, but rather their sum. Note and interval names are provided where alpha-pentacot intervals align with standard monocot intervals (which use [[chain-of-fifths notation]]).
