: Okay, I definitely think that comma deserves to be treated like both the Pythagorean and Alpharabian commas in that it should have a distinct common name from which we can derive temperament names.  However, I'm not sure which common name we should use for this.  I think we'll have to brainstorm at some point. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 17:08, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Type of the name

Should we treat Pythrabian as a special comma name like Pythagorean/Alpharabian comma and give it a distinct common name to derive temp names, or also as a common name, which means it can use the second declension (pythrabia – pythrabic – pythrabian – pythrabian comma)? —FloraC (talk) 09:04, 30 April 2026 (UTC)

Okay, I definitely think that comma deserves to be treated like both the Pythagorean and Alpharabian commas in that it should have a distinct common name from which we can derive temperament names. However, I'm not sure which common name we should use for this. I think we'll have to brainstorm at some point. --Aura (talk) 17:08, 30 April 2026 (UTC)
