'''Fynn's comma''' ({{monzo|legend=1| 73 0 0 -26 }}, [[ratio]]: 9 444 732 965 739 290 427 392 / 9 387 480 337 647 754 305 649), or systematically, the '''26-7-comma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[7-limit]] [[comma]] measuring about 10.5 [[cent]]s. It is the amount by which twenty-one [[2/1|octaves]] exceed twenty-six [[7/1|harmonic sevenths]], or 2<sup>21</sup>/(7/4)<sup>26</sup>. It explains the high accuracy of [[26edo]]'s approximate [[harmonic]] [[7/1|7]].
