The '''tridecapyth comma''' is the [[13-limit]] [[unnoticeable comma]] '''3489660928/3486784401''', which measures roughly 1.43 [[cent]]s. It is the interval which, when tempered out, not only equates [[13/8]] with a stack of twenty [[3/2]] perfect fifths octave-reduced, and, consequently, a stack of four [[256/243]] Pythagorean limmas with [[16/13]], but also a stack of two [[Pythagorean comma]]s with the [[1053/1024]] tridecimal quartertone.
The '''tridecapyth comma''' ({{monzo|legend=1| 28 -20 0 0 0 1 }}, [[ratio]]: 3489660928/3486784401) is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[13-limit]] [[comma]] which measures roughly 1.43 [[cent]]s. It is the interval by which [[13/8]] exceeds a stack of twenty [[3/2|perfect fifths (3/2)]] octave reduced, and by which [[16/13]] falls short of a stack of four [[256/243|Pythagorean limmas (256/243)]]. It is perhaps more easily conceptualized as reaching [[13/4]] through ([[9/8]])<sup>10</sup>. In terms of commas, it is the amount by which [[1053/1024|tridecimal quartertone (1053/1024)]] is greater than a stack of two [[Pythagorean comma]]s.
