In [[11-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''11/8''' is an '''undecimal [[superfourth]]''' of about 551.3[[cent|¢]]. This interval is close (~3{{cent}}) to exactly between a [[4/3|perfect fourth]] and [[729/512|augmented fourth]], the latter of which is the ''augmented'' (a.k.a. ''imperfect'') version of the [[Pythagorean tuning|Pythagorean]] [[diatonic]] generator, therefore may be called the '''harmonic semiaugmented/semiperfect fourth''', or '''harmonic neutral fourth''' if you prefer to generalise the naming pattern from [[11/9|undecimal neutral third]] and [[12/11|undecimal neutral second]] and their octave-complements (which is also rigorous). Furthermore, as stacks of this interval form a core axis of [[Alpharabian tuning]], it has also been dubbed the '''Axirabian paramajor fourth''' or more simply the '''just paramajor fourth'''- see [[User:Aura/Aura's Ideas on Functional Harmony #History|the history of Aura's Ideas on Functional Harmony]] for explanation of the modified names. This interval has also been termed the '''undecimal major fourth''' since the tempered version found in [[24edo]] was dubbed the "major fourth" by [[Ivan Wyschnegradsky]], although this may be confusing in diatonic contexts. More recently, [[Zhea Erose]] has suggested calling it something more simple: the '''harmonic fourth''' - under the idea that it is the simplest [[harmonic]] that is in the general (very) rough range of "fourths" when octave-reduced.

This interval is the simplest superfourth in JI, and as it falls about halfway between [[12edo]]'s [[perfect fourth]] and [[tritone]], it is very xenharmonic. As an octave-reduced harmonic, it is a basis of consonance in 11-limit JI, alongside the lower odd numbers 9, 7, 5 and 3. It can be found in harmonic series chords such as 4:5:6:7:8:9:10:11:12, sitting somewhere between the stronger and more familiar consonances of 10 (prime 5) and 12 (prime 3).
