121edo has a distinctly sharp tendency, in that the odd [[harmonic]]s from 3 to 19 all have sharp tunings. ~~The equal temperament~~ [[tempering out|tempers out]] 15625/15552 ([[15625/15552|kleisma]]) in the [[5-limit]]; [[4000/3969]], [[6144/6125]], [[10976/10935]] in the [[7-limit]]; [[540/539]], [[896/891]] and [[1375/1372]] in the 11-limit; [[325/324]], [[352/351]], [[364/363]] and [[625/624]] in the [[13-limit]]; [[256/255]], [[375/374]] and [[442/441]] in the [[17-limit]]; [[190/189]] and [[361/360]] in the [[19-limit]]. It also serves as the [[optimal patent val]] for 13-limit [[grendel]] temperament. It is [[consistent]] through to the [[19-odd-limit]] and uniquely consistent to the [[15-odd-limit]].

It [[tempering out|tempers out]] 15625/15552 ([[15625/15552|kleisma]]) in the [[5-limit]]; [[4000/3969]], [[6144/6125]], [[10976/10935]] in the [[7-limit]]; [[540/539]], [[896/891]] and [[1375/1372]] in the 11-limit; [[325/324]], [[352/351]], [[364/363]] and [[625/624]] in the [[13-limit]]; [[256/255]], [[375/374]] and [[442/441]] in the [[17-limit]]; [[190/189]] and [[361/360]] in the [[19-limit]]. It also serves as the [[optimal patent val]] for 13-limit [[grendel]] temperament. It is [[consistent]] through to the [[19-odd-limit]] and uniquely consistent to the [[15-odd-limit]].

Because it tempers out 540/539 it allows [[swetismic chords]], because it tempers out 325/324 it allows [[marveltwin chords]], because it tempers out 640/637 it allows [[huntmic chords]], because it tempers out 352/351 it allows [[major minthmic chords]], because it tempers out 364/363 it allows [[minor minthmic chords]], because it tempers out 676/675 it allows [[island chords]] and because it tempers out 1575/1573 it allows [[nicolic chords]]. That makes for a very flexible system, and since this suite of commas defines 13-limit 121et, it is a system only associated with 121.

=== ~~Prime~~ harmonics ===

=== Odd harmonics ===

=== Subsets and supersets ===

Since 121 factors into ~~{{factorization|121}}~~, 121edo contains [[11edo]] as its only nontrivial subset.

Since 121 factors into 11<sup>2</sup>, 121edo contains [[11edo]] as its only nontrivial subset.
