A single step of 31-edo is about 38.71¢. Intervals around this size are called //dieses// (singular '//diesis//'). In 31 it is equivalent to the difference between one octave and three stacked major thirds (C to E, to G#, to B#, but B# ≠ C), or four minor thirds (C to Eb to Gb to Bbb to Dbb ≠ C). In the [[11-limit]], the diesis stands in for just ratios 56:55 (31.19); 55:54 (31.77¢); 49:48 (39.70¢); 45:44 (38.91¢); 36:35 (48.77¢); 33:32 (53.27¢) and others. The diesis is a defining sound of 31edo; when it does not appear directly in a scale, it often shows up as the difference between two or more intervals of a similar size. Demonstrated in [[SpiralProgressions]].

===2\31 octave - approx. 77.42¢ - Minor Semitone or Chromatic Semitone or Small Minor Second or downminor 2nd===  
The difference between a major and minor third. The more 'expressive' of the 'half steps,' and the larger of 31's two "microtones". In meantone, it is the //chromatic semitone//, the interval that distinguishes major and minor intervals of the same generic interval class (eg. thirds). 2\31 stands in for just ratios 28:27 (62.96¢); 25:24 (70.67¢); 22:21 (80.54¢); 21:20 (84.45¢) and others. Generates [[Starling temperaments#Valentine%20temperament|valentine temperament]] - aka [[Armodue theory#Semi-equalized%20Armodue|semi-equalized Armodue]].

===3\31 octave - approx. 116.13¢- Major Semitone or Diatonic Semitone or Large Minor Second or minor 2nd===  
The larger and clunkier of the 31edo semitones. In meantone, it is the //diatonic semitone// which appears in the diatonic scale between, for instance, the major third and perfect fourth, and the major seventh and octave. 3\31 stands in for just ratios 16:15 (111.73¢); 15:14 (119.44¢) and others. It is notable that two of these make an 8/7; this implies that the 3\31 is a //secor// and generates [[Gamelismic clan|miracle temperament]].
