Whats the difference between a diminished and a minor? they're both lower than a major. When i'm doing the interval trainer(NOT the ear trainer, the written one). I'll see an interval that looked the same as any diminished interval, but it turns out to be a minor. What is the difference and how can I tell the difference on the trainer?
Again, I'm not talking about ear training. I'm talking about the written intervals.

There totally different. In what way I don't know. I had a good music guide book but I lost it in my room. I think I'll have to find it.

Isn't diminished a tone lower than the major, whilst minor is only a semitone lower??
I may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's something like that!!
Sorry I wasn't much help!

Minor is half a step lower than Major. Diminished is a half step lower than minor.

Diminished has a chord layout like this: 1,3,5,7 or 1,3,5,-7 instead of 1,-3,5,8

If you are talking about intervals, diminished and minor mean the same thing (they both mean to lower the tone a half step).
If you are talking about chords, it is different.
Minor = 1 b3 5
Dim = 1 b3 b5
yeah
