224/135, conventionally known as the septimal narrow major sixth or marvel-ptolemaic major sixth, is a 7-limit interval that is flat of the Pythagorean major sixth by 3645/3584, i.e. a syntonic comma plus a marvel comma. This interval functionally doubles as a type of diminished seventh, flat of the Pythagorean diminished seventh by an aberschisma. This gives rise to the more precise name aberschismic diminished seventh. In fact it forms the difference between 16/9 and 15/14.
