English term or phrase: microtone
A smaller interval than the well-known semitone between two notes. How do we call it in Greek though? Is it "μικροτόνος"?

Explanation:
Βρίσκω το μικροδιάστημα σε σχέση με τη μικροτονική μουσική.
Μπορούμε πάντως να πούμε μικροτόνιο σε αναλογία προς το ημιτόνιο. Αλλά δεν έχω τεκμηρίωση.

Καλημέρα.
