'''Orwell''', so named because 19 steps of [[84edo]] (i.e. 19\84) is a possible generator, is an excellent [[7-limit]] [[regular temperament|temperament]] and an amazing [[11-limit]] temperament because of the simplicity of [[harmonic]] [[11/1|11]].

In orwell, the [[3/1|just perfect twelfth (3/1)]] is divided into 7 equal steps. One of these steps represents [[7/6]]; three represent [[8/5]]. Alternately, the [[5/1|5th harmonic (5/1)]] divided into 3 equal steps also makes a good orwell generator, being [[~]][[12/7]].

In the 11-limit, two generators are equated to [[11/8]] (meaning [[99/98]] is tempered out). This means that three stacked generators makes the [[orwell tetrad]] {{dash|1/1, 7/6, 11/8, 8/5|med}}, a chord in which every interval is a (tempered) 11-odd-limit consonance. Other such chords in orwell are the [[keenanismic chords]] and the [[swetismic chords]].
In the 11-limit, two generators are equated to [[11/8]] (meaning [[99/98]] is tempered out). This means that three stacked generators makes the [[orwell tetrad]] 1–7/6–11/8–8/5, a chord in which every interval is a (tempered) 11-odd-limit consonance. Other such chords in orwell are the [[keenanismic chords]] and the [[swetismic chords]].


Compatible equal temperaments include [[22edo]], [[31edo]], [[53edo]], and [[84edo]]. Orwell is in better tune in lower limits than higher ones; the [[optimal patent val]] is [[296edo]] in the 5-limit, [[137edo]] in the 7-limit, and [[53edo]] in the 11-limit. It tempers out the semicomma in the 5-limit, and so belongs to the [[semicomma family]]. In the 7-limit it tempers out [[225/224]], [[1728/1715]], [[2430/2401]] and [[6144/6125]], and in the 11-limit, 99/98, [[121/120]], [[176/175]], [[385/384]] and [[540/539]]. By adding [[275/273]] to the list of commas it can be extended to the 13-limit as [[Semicomma family #Orwell|tridecimal orwell]], and by adding instead [[66/65]], [[Semicomma family #Winston|winston temperament]]. See [[Orwell extensions]] for details about 13-limit extensions.
