A '''werckismic chord''' is an [[Dyadic chord|essentially tempered dyadic chord]] in werckismic (441/440) tempering in the 2.9.5.7.11 subgroup in the 11-odd-limit.
A '''werckismic chord''' is an [[essentially tempered dyadic chord]] tempered by the werckisma, [[441/440]].  


The werckismic triads consist of three pairs of inversely related chords: 1-11/9-7/5 with steps 11/9-8/7-10/7 and 1-11/9-7/4 with steps 11/9-10/7-8/7; 1-11/7-7/4 with steps 11/7-10/9-8/7 and 1-11/7-9/5 with steps 11/7-8/7-10/9; and 1-7/5-11/7 with steps 7/5-9/8-14/11 and 1-14/11-10/7 with steps 14/11-9/8-7/5.
Werckismic chords are of [[Dyadic chord/Pattern of essentially tempered chords|pattern 2]] in the [[11-odd-limit]], meaning that there are 6 [[triad]]s, 15 [[tetrad]]s and 6 [[pentad]]s, for a total of 27 distinct chord structures.  


The werckismic tetrads consist of three palindromic (self-inversive) chords and five pairs of chords in an inverse relationship. The palindromic chords are 1-5/4-10/7-7/4 with steps 5/4-8/7-11/9-8/7; 1-9/8-10/7-11/7 with steps 9/8-14/11-11/10-14/11; and 1-14/11-7/5-16/9 with steps 14/11-11/10-14/11-9/8. The pairs of chords are 1-11/9-11/7-7/4 with steps 11/9-9/7-10/9-8/7 and 1-9/7-11/7-9/5 with steps 9/7-11/9-8/7-10/9; 1-10/7-11/7-7/4 with steps 10/7-11/10-10/9-8/7 and 1-8/7-14/11-7/5 with steps 8/7-10/9-11/10-10/7; 1-9/8-10/7-7/4 with steps 9/8-14/11-11/9-8/7 and 1-11/9-14/9-7/4 with steps 11/9-14/11-9/8-8/7; 1-11/9-11/8-7/4 with steps 11/9-9/8-14/11-8/7 and 1-14/11-10/7-7/4 with steps 14/11-9/8-11/9-8/7; 1-9/8-5/4-10/7 with steps 9/8-10/9-8/7-7/5 and 1-10/9-5/4-7/4 with steps 10/9-9/8-7/5-8/7; and 1-9/8-9/7-10/7 with steps 9/8-8/7-10/9-7/5 and 1-9/8-11/7-7/4 with steps 9/8-7/5-10/9-8/7.
The werckismic triads consist of three pairs of inversely related chords:
* 1–11/9–7/5 with steps 11/9, 8/7, 10/7, and its inverse
* 1–11/9–7/4 with steps 11/9, 10/7, 8/7;
* 1–11/7–7/4 with steps 11/7, 10/9, 8/7, and its inverse
* 1–11/7–9/5 with steps 11/7, 8/7, 10/9;
* 1–7/5–11/7 with steps 7/5, 9/8, 14/11, and its inverse
* 1–14/11–10/7 with steps 14/11, 9/8, 7/5.


The werckismic pentads consist of three pairs of chords in an inverse relationship: 1-9/8-5/4-10/7-7/4 with steps 9/8-10/9-8/7-11/9-8/7 and 1-11/9-7/5-14/9-7/4 with steps 11/9-8/7-10/9-9/8-8/7; 1-11/9-11/8-11/7-7/4 with steps 11/9-9/8-8/7-10/9-8/7 and 1-9/8-11/8-11/7-7/4 with steps 9/8-11/9-8/7-10/9-8/7; 1-9/8-9/7-10/7-11/7 with steps 9/8-8/7-10/9-11/10-14/11 and 1-9/8-10/7-11/7-7/4 with steps 9/8-14/11-11/10-10/9-8/7.
The werckismic tetrads consist of three palindromic (self-inversive) chords and five pairs of chords in an inverse relationship. The palindromic chords are
* 1–5/4–10/7–7/4 with steps 5/4, 8/7, 11/9, 8/7;  
* 1–9/8–10/7–11/7 with steps 9/8, 14/11, 11/10, 14/11;
* 1–14/11–7/5–16/9 with steps 14/11, 11/10, 14/11, 9/8.  


The count of chords is therefore triads: 3, tetrads: 13, pentads: 6, for a total of 22.
The pairs of chords are:  
* 1–11/9–11/7–7/4 with steps 11/9, 9/7, 10/9, 8/7, and its inverse
* 1–9/7–11/7–9/5 with steps 9/7, 11/9, 8/7, 10/9;
* 1–10/7–11/7–7/4 with steps 10/7, 11/10, 10/9, 8/7, and its inverse
* 1–8/7–14/11–7/5 with steps 8/7, 10/9, 11/10, 10/7;
* 1–9/8–10/7–7/4 with steps 9/8, 14/11, 11/9, 8/7, and its inverse
* 1–11/9–14/9–7/4 with steps 11/9, 14/11, 9/8, 8/7;
* 1–11/9–11/8–7/4 with steps 11/9, 9/8, 14/11, 8/7, and its inverse
* 1–14/11–10/7–7/4 with steps 14/11, 9/8, 11/9, 8/7;
* 1–9/8–5/4–10/7 with steps 9/8, 10/9, 8/7, 7/5, and its inverse
* 1–10/9–5/4–7/4 with steps 10/9, 9/8, 7/5, 8/7;
* 1–9/8–9/7–10/7 with steps 9/8, 8/7, 10/9, 7/5, and its inverse
* 1–9/8–11/7–7/4 with steps 9/8, 7/5, 10/9, 8/7.

The werckismic pentads consist of three pairs of chords in an inverse relationship:
* 1–9/8–5/4–10/7–7/4 with steps 9/8, 10/9, 8/7, 11/9, 8/7, and its inverse

* 1–9/8–9/7–10/7–11/7 with steps 9/8, 8/7, 10/9, 11/10, 14/11, and its inverse
* 1–9/8–10/7–11/7–7/4 with steps 9/8, 14/11, 11/10, 10/9, 8/7.
