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 an aberdiesis (3645/3584), i.e. a syntonic comma plus a marvel comma (225/224). This interval functionally doubles as a type of diminished seventh, flat of the Pythagorean diminished seventh by an aberschisma (5120/5103). This gives rise to the more precise name aberschismic diminished seventh. In fact it forms the difference between 16/9 and 15/14.
