However, due to the need for a separate name for the rank 2 2.3.17/5 subgroup temperament and due to its relation to the chord (see [[Talk:136/135]]), the name "fiventeen" was given to the temperament and hence due to the lack of a need for "-ic/-ismic/-isma" (as that can apply to the already-short name of ''diatisma'', itself a rename & shortenage of ''diatonisma'') the name was shortened to just "fiventeen".

136/135, the diatisma, diatic comma or fiventeen comma, is a small 17-limit comma. It is the interval that separates 17/10 and 27/16 (or their octave complements 20/17 and 32/27) and that separates 30/17 and 16/9 (or their octave complements 17/15 and 9/8). It is also the difference between 16/15 and 18/17 with an S-expression of S16S17 or ((16/15)⋅(17/16))/((17/16)⋅(18/17)).

Temperaments

Fiventeen

17edo makes a good tuning (especially for its size) for the 2.3.17/5-subgroup {136/135} rank 2 temperament which implies a supersoft pentic pentad of ~30:34:40:45:51:60 (because as aforementioned 17/15 is equated with 9/8), corresponding approximately to a just 20/17 tuning, although 80edo might be preferred for an approximately just 51/40 to optimize plausibility slightly more, and 80 + 17 = 97edo and 97 + 17 = 114edo do even better in striking a balance between 80edo's more stable tuning and that having 20/17 more accurate (as in 17edo) is useful because of the more convincing suggestion of the two 15:17:20 chords present in the fiventeen pentad. The same is true of the related rank-3 temperament diatic, described below, for which the optimal ET sequence is much more characteristic of optimized tunings, finding 34edo, then 80edo, then 34 + 80 = 114edo and amazingly even 114 + 80 = 194bc-edo, though because of its focus on primes 5 and 17 it misses 97edo as a tuning, and slightly less optimized though still interesting 63edo and 63 + 80 = 143edo tunings are found in the optimal ET sequence for fiventeen.

Diatismic

The only edo tuning that has less than 25% relative error for all primes in the 17-limit tempering 136/135 is 46edo, which also tunes 20/17 with less than 25% relative error and 51/40 even more accurately. If you allow 7/4 to be sharper than 25% then 80edo makes a good and more accurate tuning that extends to the 23-limit. Alternatively, if you don't care (as much) about prime 11, 68edo makes a great tuning in the no-11's 19-limit and no-11's no-29's 31-limit.

Srutal archagall

Srutal archagall is an efficient rank-2 temperament tempering out both S16 and S17, which is equivalently described as charic semitonic due to the fact that {S16⋅S17, S16/S17} = {S16, S17}

Etymology

The name of this comma was formerly diatonisma, suggested by Xenllium in 2023, but this name would imply a problematic "diatonic" subgroup temperament. Therefore diatisma, a shortenage of diatonisma, and fiventeenisma a portmanteau of five and seventeen for its relation to a chord involving primes 5 and 17, were proposed by Godtone in 2024. The name fiventeen was soon given to the rank-2 2.3.17/5-subgroup temperament, and hence the name fiventeenisma became just fiventeen comma.
