'''4225/4224''', the '''leprechaun comma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[13-limit]] [[superparticular]] interval. This [[comma]] is the difference between the following pairs:
* [[65/64]] and [[66/65]]
* [[169/168]] and [[176/175]]
* [[325/324]] and [[352/351]]
* [[2080/2079]] and [[4096/4095]]
* [[3025/3024]] and [[10648/10647]]


== Theory ==
It factors into [[4375/4374]] and [[123201/123200]].
It is targeted in the abigail, newt, decoid, and donar temperaments.
 
== Temperaments ==
[[Tempering out]] this comma in the full 13-limit leads to the rank-5 '''leprechaun temperament'''. It is also tempered out in lower-rank temperaments including [[abigail]], [[newt]], [[decoid]], [[donar]], etc. Tempering it out also splits the [[33/32]] Alpharabian quarter-tone in two, each part corresponding to 65/64 and 66/65. You may find a list of good equal temperaments that support this temperament below.

== Etymology ==
This comma was named by [[Margo Schulter]] in 2012 as a tribute to [[George Secor]]’s 2002 short story ''A Bit O' Blarney''<ref>[https://yahootuninggroupsultimatebackup.github.io/tuning/topicId_105598.html Yahoo! Tuning List | ''EDO alternatives, Leprechaun comma (4225/4224)'']</ref>.
