'''99/98''', or the '''Mothwellsma''' (17.576 [[cent]]s in size), represents the difference between [[9/7]] (septimal supermajor third) and [[14/11]] (undecimal supermajor third), or the difference between two [[7/6]]s (septimal subminor thirds) and one [[11/8]] (undecimal semi-augmented fourth).

'''99/98''', or the '''mothwellsma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[11-limit]] [[comma]] of 17.6 [[cent]]s in size. It represents the difference between the [[9/7]] and [[14/11]] supermajor thirds, or the difference between two [[7/6]] subminor thirds and one [[11/8]] semi-augmented fourth. Note that 11/8 = (7/6)<sup>2</sup>(99/98) and that 7/6 × 99/98 = [[33/28]], which is the fifth complement of 14/11.

Tempering out this comma alone in the 11-limit leads to the '''mothwellsmic temperament''' (→ [[Catalog of rank-4 temperaments #Mothwellsmic (99/98)]]) and enables [[mothwellsmic chords]]. It is related to 11-limit [[orwell]], as a generator between 7/6 and (11/8)<sup>1/2</sup> is befitting of orwell.


[[Category:Todo:expand]]
== Etymology ==
This comma's name comes from a contraction of ''mothra'' and ''orwell'', two of the rank-2 temperaments that temper out the comma.
