In [[11-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''14/11''' is the '''undecimal major third''', a supermajor third of about 417.5¢. It represents the difference between the 11th and 14th overtones of the [[harmonic series]] and appears in chords such as 8:11:14, the principal triad of [[Orgonia|orgone]] temperament. 14/11 can also function as a [[Neo-Gothic]] major third, as it falls between [[5/4]] and [[9/7]]. Indeed, it is the [[mediant]] ratio between those simpler intervals, as it is (5+9)/(4+7). Other relatively simple thirds in this region can be generated by taking the mediant between 5/4 and 14/11 (which is (5+14)/(4+11) = [[19/15]], about 409.2¢) and between 14/11 and 9/7 (which is (14+9)/(11+7) = [[23/18]], about 424.4¢. Also in this region is the Pythagorean ([[3-limit]]) major third of [[81/64]] (about 407.8¢), which can be generated by stacking four [[3/2]] perfect fifths and [[octave-reduce|octave-reducing]].
