Enneadecal temperament tempers out the [[enneadeca]], {{monzo| -14 -19 19 }}, and as a consequence has a period of 1/19 octave. This is because the enneadeca is the amount by which nineteen just minor thirds fall short of an octave. If to this we add 4375/4374 we get the 7-limit temperament we are considering here, but note should be taken of the fact that it makes for a reasonable 5-limit microtemperament also, where the generator can be ~25/24, ~27/25, ~10/9, ~5/4 or ~3/2. To this we may add possible 7-limit generators such as ~225/224, ~15/14 or ~9/7. Since enneadecal tempers out [[703125/702464]], the amount by which 81/80 falls short of three stacked 225/224, we can equate the 225/224 generator with (81/80)<sup>1/3</sup>. This is the interval needed to adjust the 1/3-comma meantone flat fifths and major thirds of [[19edo]] up to just ones. [[171edo]] is a good tuning for either the 5- or 7-limit, and [[494edo]] shows how to extend the temperament to the 11- or 13-limit, where it is accurate but very complex. Fans of near-perfect fifths may want to use [[665edo]] for a tuning. | Enneadecal temperament tempers out the [[enneadeca]], {{monzo| -14 -19 19 }}, and as a consequence has a period of 1/19 octave.
