'''1/3-comma meantone''' is the tuning of [[meantone]] temperament in which each perfect fifth is tempered by a third of a [[syntonic comma]] from its just value of [[3/2]]. This results in minor thirds being exactly [[6/5]] (and major sixths being exactly [[5/3]]). In other words, 1/3-comma meantone is the specific tuning of [[meantone]] temperament with an [[Eigenmonzo|eigenmonzo (unchanged interval)]] of 6/5. The fifth is 694.786 cents in size, and the major third 379.145 cents. Both are flat by 1/3 syntonic comma (''c''. 7.2 cents) than that in the JI. 1/3-comma meantone is practically identical to the closed system of [[19edo]] (although technically there is a slight difference).
