The '''minthma''' or '''11/13-kleisma''', '''352/351''', is a [[13-limit]] (also 2.3.11.13 subgroup) [[small comma]] measuring about 4.9{{cent}}. This comma can be described in a number of ways. First, it is the difference between the tridecimal minor third of [[13/11]] and the Pythagorean minor third of [[32/27]], hence the name ''11/13''-kleisma. Second, it is the difference between various tridecimal intervals and their adjacent undecimal intervals such as

352/351 and [[351/350]], the ratwolfsma, are extremely close in size and make up a consecutive pair of 13-limit [[superparticular]] commas. Their difference is [[chalmersia|123201/123200]], the chalmersma, the smallest 13-limit superparticular comma; their sum is [[176/175]], the valinorsma, an 11-limit superparticular comma.

== History and etymology ==
This comma was known as the ''minthma'' from 2011. In 2022, [[Margo Schulter]] requested it should be changed to ''major''/''greater minthma'' to distinguish it from [[364/363]], which would gain the name ''minor''/''lesser minthma''. The ''major gentle comma'' was also added to this comma in contrast to the ''minor gentle comma'' of 364/363. Both commas were essential to define the [[gentle]] temperament.
