Augmented and Diminished Intervals
Late AntiquityAn augmented interval is a semitone larger than a major or perfect interval.
 Augmented Unison
		                            Augmented Unison
		                         Augmented Second
		                            Augmented Second

		                            Augmented Third
		                         Augmented Fourth
		                            Augmented Fourth
		                         Augmented Fifth
		                            Augmented Fifth
		                         Augmented Sixth
		                            Augmented Sixth
		                         Augmented Seventh
		                            Augmented Seventh
		                         Augmented Octave
		                            Augmented Octave
		                        A diminished interval is a semitone smaller than a minor or pefect interval.
 Diminished Second
		                            Diminished Second
		                         Diminished Third
		                            Diminished Third
		                         Diminished Fourth
		                            Diminished Fourth
		                         Diminished Fifth
		                            Diminished Fifth
		                         Diminished Sixth
		                            Diminished Sixth
		                         Diminished Seventh
		                            Diminished Seventh
		                         Diminished Octave
		                            Diminished Octave
		                        Note that since the interval between two pitches cannot be smaller than zero, there can be no such thing as a diminished unison. The table below shows you whether an interval is diminished (d), minor (m), major (M), augmented (A), or perfect (P) based on the number of semitones (row) and generic interval (column.)
