'''121/64''', the '''Axirabian major seventh''', or '''octave-reduced 121st harmonic''', is an [[11-limit]] interval that results from stacking two [[11/8]] fourths.  While the [[FJS]] and other systems that treat [[33/32]] as a comma end up designating 121/64 as a "minor seventh", this interval actually functions as a kind of major seventh- a property that is particularly evident when you consider that its octave complement is a type of diatonic semitone.
