m note "meantone diesis" as a possible term if not for potential ambiguity (not sure how ambiguous it really is as it's likely a better name in my perspective i think?) |

::: Do you have a suggestion for a name for this interval? Cuz I do genuinely believe it is a kind of diesis, and one that is easily discoverable and not unfamiliar to xen theorists to do with tritones. I'd be more than happy to scrap the name for another name involving "diesis" if that's your only concern. (I'd suggest "meantone diesis" as it's basically characteristic of meantone but that's a bit ambiguous potentially...) --[[User:Godtone|Godtone]] ([[User talk:Godtone|talk]]) 16:06, 28 July 2026 (UTC) | ::: Do you have a suggestion for a name for this interval?

:::: I do agree this is a kind of diesis, but I think the new name should solve the name for the corresponding temperament too. ''Meantone diesis'' is indeed not very clear, as it may refer to the d2 in meantone. So, I suggest ''abercomma''/''aberdiesis'', cuz this interval is a Pythagorean comma + an aberschisma. The temperament? ''Abercommic''/''aberdietic'', I suppose. (I don't feel strongly about comma vs diesis here tho it should be noted it's smaller than Sagittal's range of a diesis. Not that I treat Sagittal as an absolute authority but still.) —[[User:FloraC|FloraC]] ([[User talk:FloraC|talk]]) 20:04, 28 July 2026 (UTC) | |||
