'''44/35''', the '''fwiwismic major third''', is an [[11-limit]] interval that is close to a [[12edo]] major third.

| Interval information |
44/35, the fwiwismic major third, is an 11-limit interval that is close to a 12edo major third. It differs from 81/64, the Pythagorean major third, by 2835/2816, the fwiwisma. It also differs from 5/4 by 176/175, the valinorsma. It is the product of 11/10 and 8/7, intervals that are commonly used as stand-ins for the cube roots of 4/3 and 3/2 respectively, so appears as 1/3 of an octave in systems that carve both 4/3 and 3/2 in thirds, such as 15edo, 72edo, 87edo, and 159edo. It is 441/440 flat of 63/50, a 7-limit interval often representing 1/3 of an octave, in fact much more accurately than 44/35.
Terminology
It could also be called valinorsmic major third if viewed as fudging from 5/4 instead.
