A '''prime-limit-inclusive fully-dimensionally-entangled comma''' ('''PIFE comma''' or '''pife''') is a [[comma]] that takes a system of ''n'' [[Rank_and_codimension|dimensions]] and reduces it to (''n'' − 1) dimensions, with all of the previous dimensions now being tangled together onto (''n'' − 1) composite dimensions.<ref name="def">Dakota, Scott. https://discord.com/channels/332357996569034752/516067802864549890/866332500729397289</ref>

A '''prime-limit-inclusive fully-dimensionally-entangled comma''' ('''PIFE comma''' or '''pife''') is a [[comma]] that takes a system of ''n'' [[Rank_and_codimension|dimensions]] and reduces it to {{nowrap|(''n'' − 1)}} dimensions, with all of the previous dimensions now being tangled together onto {{nowrap|(''n'' − 1)}} composite dimensions.<ref name="def">Dakota, Scott. https://discord.com/channels/332357996569034752/516067802864549890/866332500729397289</ref>

The term was coined by Scott Dakota <ref name="def" />.

"Some pife commas also seem to be pretty portable across multiple systems, because they tend to have short taxicab extent in each JI dimension they are touching - therefore, there's more range where the component intervals can be tuned various ways, but not have the short connections so tuning-dented they don't make sense any more.
