For any [[Equal|equal]] temperament, there are technically an unlimited number of different [[Abstract_regular_temperament|abstract regular temperaments]] that it "supports" in the sense of tempering out all the same commas, thus allowing music in the non-equal temperament to be faithfully and mechanically played in the equal temperament.

However, some of these non-equal regular temperaments become exactly the same as each other when tuned to the equal temperament. For example, in [[12edo|12edo]], [[pajara|pajara]] and [[Injera|injera]] become the same, even though in anything other than 12 they are distinct temperaments.
