The '''11-limit''' consists of all [[just intonation|justly tuned]] [[interval]]s whose [[ratio|numerators and denominators]] are both products of the [[prime]]s 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11. The 11-limit is the 5th [[prime limit]] and is a superset of the [[7-limit]] and a subset of the [[13-limit]]. Some examples of 11-limit intervals are [[14/11]], [[11/8]], [[27/22]] and [[99/98]].  
The '''11-limit''' (a.k.a. ''yazala'' in [[color notation]]) consists of all [[just intonation|justly tuned]] [[interval]]s whose [[ratio|numerators and denominators]] are both products of the [[prime]]s 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11. The 11-limit is the 5th [[prime limit]] and is a superset of the [[7-limit]] and a subset of the [[13-limit]].

The 11-limit is a [[rank and codimension|rank-5]] system, and can be modeled in a 4-dimensional [[lattice]], with the primes 3, 5, 7, and 11 represented by each dimension. The prime 2 does not appear in the typical 11-limit lattice because [[octave equivalence]] is presumed. If octave equivalence is not presumed, a fifth dimension is needed.
