The '''enneadeca''' ({{monzo|legend=1| -14 -19 19 }}) is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[5-limit]] [[comma]] of 2.816 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which nineteen [[6/5|classical minor thirds]] fall short of five [[2/1|octaves]], that is, 2<sup>5</sup>/(6/5)<sup>19</sup>. | |||
== Temperament == | |||
[[Tempering out]] the enneadeca leads to the 5-limit [[enneadecal]] temperament, [[support]]ed by equal divisions divisible by 19 such as [[152edo]], [[171edo]], and [[190edo]]. | |||
== Etymology == | |||
This comma was named by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in 2001 in terms of the corresponding temperament, ''enneadecal''<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_2121.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Shismic & co'']</ref>, for the temperament has 19 periods per octave. The comma was at one point dubbed ''enneadecima''<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_5025.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''5-limit comma names'']</ref>, though it was ''enneadeca'' that stuck. | |||
