::: I can definitely show you a good example of a [[256/225]] diminished third in action, however, the best examples of diminished thirds in general seem to show up in Neapolitan modes, and these are tricky to work with even in 12edo, never mind in Just Intonation. Still, while I need to get things straightened on my end, I have to thank the two of you for giving me an idea for how to improve a certain piece I'm writing at the moment- a long song steeped in an approximation of 159edo. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 18:49, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

:::: Ah, great this is of help for you 🙂 - what I think is that [[144/125]] is definitely not ''the'' classic diminished third as well as the whole 5<sup>±3</sup> [[User:Xenwolf/Interval quartet|interval quartet]] of d6, A3, d3, A6 isn't "classic". --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 19:51, 27 September 2020 (UTC)

== As a comma ==

The idea of tempering out such a big comma confuses me. I read the [[University temperament]] article, I heard the piece. Which actually seems to be in a tuning near [[21edo]]. Isn't this just an error in nomenclature? I appreciate any help for better understanding. Thanks --[[User:Xenwolf|Xenwolf]] ([[User talk:Xenwolf|talk]]) 16:01, 27 September 2020 (UTC)
