The '''septendecima''' ([[monzo]]: {{monzo| -52 -17 34 }}) is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[5-limit]] [[comma]]. It is the difference between a stack of seventeen [[25/24]]'s and one [[2/1|octave]].

The [[regular temperament|temperament]] which [[tempering out|tempers out]] only this comma is 5-limit [[~~ragismic microtemperaments #Chlorine|~~chlorine]]. The octave must be divisible by 17 in order to temper out this comma. Any edo such as [[311edo]], which is not a multiple of 17 cannot be tempering out this comma.

== Etymology ==

This comma was once named by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in 2001 in terms of the corresponding temperament, ''heptadecal'', for the temperament has 17 periods per octave<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning-math/topicId_2121.html Yahoo! Tuning Group | ''Shismic & co'']</ref>. The logical name for the comma would be ''heptadeca'', following ''[[enneadeca]]''. ~~It was unclear how and why~~ it ~~was~~ changed to ''septendecima'', the Latin equivalent.
