The '''sperasma''' is the [[17-limit]] [[superparticular]] [[comma]] with a ratio of '''2500/2499'''. Its name comes from the Latin verb "spērāre" meaning "to hope" or "to fear" (meaning  "to hope" or "to fear"<ref>[[Wiktionary: spero #Latin]]</ref>).
'''2500/2499''', the '''sperasma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[17-limit]] [[superparticular]] [[comma]] with a size of about 0.693 [[cent]]s.

It also represents the little gap between [[17/12]] and a stack of two [[25/21]]'s.

2500/2499, the sperasma, is an unnoticeable 17-limit superparticular comma with a size of about 0.693 cents. Among other things, it is the difference between the small septimal sixth-tone of 50/49 and the large septendecimal sixth-tone of 51/50. It also represents the little gap between 17/12 and a stack of two 25/21's.
