'''6144/6125''', the '''porwell comma''', is a [[7-limit]] [[~~small~~ comma]] measuring about 5.4 ~~cents~~. It is the amount by which a stack of two [[35/32]]'s falls short of [[6/5]], and the amount by which a stack of two [[48/35]]'s exceeds [[15/8]].

== Temperaments ==

Tempering out this comma leads to the [[porwell family]] of temperaments.

Tempering out this comma alone in the 7-limit leads to the [[porwell]] temperament. See [[Porwell family]] for the family of rank-3 temperaments where it is tempered out. See [[Porwell temperaments]] for a collection of rank-2 temperaments where it is tempered out.

== Etymology ==

~~The porwell~~ comma was named by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in ~~2010. It is the concatenation~~ of [[~~porcupine~~]] and [[~~orwell~~]]<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/~~topicId_88759~~.html ''~~Some unnamed 7-~~limit ~~temperaments~~'']</ref>.

This comma was first named as ''hewuermity'' by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in 2005 as a contraction of ''[[hemiwürschmidt]]'' and ''[[amity]]''<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_12900.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Seven limit comma names from pairs of temperament names'']</ref>, and was renamed to ''porwell'' in 2010 as a contraction of ''[[porcupine]]'' and ''[[orwell]]'' per [[Petr Pařízek]]'s suggestion<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_88759.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Some unnamed 7-limit temperaments'']</ref>.
