'''221/220''', the '''minor naiadma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[17-limit]] [[superparticular]] comma about 7.9 [[cent]]s in size. It forms the difference between [[13/10]] (tridecimal semisixth) and [[22/17]] (small septendecimal semisixth). It is also the amount by which ~~a stack of~~ a stack consisting of 13/10 and [[17/10]] exceeds [[11/5]] ([[11/10]] plus an octave). The name ''minor naiadma'' is contrast to the ''major naiadma'', [[170/169]], measuring about 10.2¢, which is the difference between 13/10 and [[17/13]] (large septendecimal semisixth). They are so named because 13/10, 17/13 and 22/17 are naiadic [[interseptimal interval]]s, and 221/220 is smaller than 170/169 by a [[13-limit]] [[unnoticeable comma]], [[2200/2197]] (petrma).
