The '''starling comma''' or '''septimal semicomma''', '''126/125''' (about 13.8 [[cent]]s), is the [[superparticular]] [[7-limit]] [[comma]] which is the difference between [[36/35]] (septimal quartertone) and [[50/49]] (jubilisma). In terms of just intervals, it is the amount by which [[12/7]] falls short of three [[6/5]] minor thirds. It is also the amount by which two [[5/3]] major sixths (octave-reduced, [[25/18]]) fall short of the [[7/5]] [[tritone]], and the amount by which three 5/3's (octave-reduced) fall short of the [[7/6]] septimal minor third. It can also be found when comparing the conventional 5-limit minor third and major tenth to the nearest [[ | The '''starling comma''' or '''septimal semicomma''', '''126/125''' (about 13.8 [[cent]]s), is the [[superparticular]] [[7-limit]] [[comma]] which is the difference between [[36/35]] (septimal quartertone) and [[50/49]] (jubilisma).
