The [[5-limit]] parent [[comma]] of the '''[[meantone]] family''' is the Didymus or [[Wikipedia: syntonic comma|syntonic comma]], [[81/80]]. This is the one they all temper out. The [[monzo]] for 81/80 goes {{monzo| -4 4 -1 }}, and that can be flipped around to the corresponding [[wedgie]], &lt;&lt;1 4 4||, which tells us that the period is an octave, the generator is a fifth, and four fifths go to make up a 5/1 interval.
