In 19-limit just intonation, 19/18 is the large undevicesimal semitone or Boethius' semitone, measuring about 93.6¢. It is sharp of the Pythagorean limma (256/243) by 513/512, the undevicesimal comma aka Boethius' comma.

The small comma (39/35)/(19/18)2 = 12636/12635 is tempered out in 53, 130, 140, 243, 270, 422, 513, 665, 742, 795, 935, 1065, 1178, 1205, 1308, 1395, 1448, 1578, 2000, 2190, 2243, 2460, 3125, 3178, 3395, and 4703 EDOs.
