In [[19-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''20/19''' is the '''small undevicesimal semitone''', measuring about 88.8¢ (almost exactly 1/3 of a subminor third of [[7/6]]). Its [[octave complement]] is [[19/10]], the "undevicesimal diminished octave".
In [[19-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''20/19''' is the '''small undevicesimal semitone''', measuring about 88.8¢ (almost exactly 1/3 of a subminor third of [[7/6]]). Its [[octave complement]] is [[19/10]], the "undevicesimal diminished octave". It is very close to 2 steps out of [[27edo]], or 88.8889 cents.


The small comma (7/6)/(20/19)^3 = 48013/48000 is tempered out in 12, 41, 53, 68, 80, 94, 121, 161, 190, 202, 217, 229, 243, 270, 282, 311, 323, 364, 460, 472, 513, 525, 540, 581, 742, 783, 795, 1012, 1053, 1106, 1308, 1323, 1578, 1848, 1889, and 2320 EDOs, leading to a variety of temperaments in which three semitones make up a subminor third.
