'''3888/3887''', the '''vicetride comma''', is a [[23-limit]] and 2.3.13.23-[[subgroup]] [[square superparticular|semiparticular]] comma of about 0.445 [[cent]]s. It is the difference between [[27/23]] and [[13/12]]<sup>2</sup>, or between [[23/12]] and [[18/13]]<sup>2</sup> and in this way tempering this comma out allows for the introduction of intervals of 23 into the 2.3.13 subgroup, like is done in the notable 2.3.13 systems [[17edo]] and [[147edo]].
