::::: True, but if the Wikipedia article on the Jazz scale is any indication, there does seem to be a bit of an emerging tradition to use "myx-" and "myxian" as the shortened combining forms of "Mixolydian", as in "Lydomyxian" and "Myxaeolian". So in effect, that's ultimately the fault of whoever created the words "Lydomyxian" and "Myxaeolian" in the first place, and I can tell you that that was someone else's idea. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 22:42, 14 February 2021 (UTC) | ::::: True, but if the Wikipedia article on the Jazz scale is any indication, there does seem to be a bit of an emerging tradition to use "myx-" and "myxian" as the shortened combining forms of "Mixolydian", as in "Lydomyxian" and "Myxaeolian".

== Comma name inconsistency == | |||
So you named 1701/1700 the "palingenesis comma" and "palingenesia" with adjective "palingenic". Earlier you named 19712/19683 the "symbiosma" and "symbiotic comma" with adjective "symbiotic". That's an instance of inconsistency, considering both are English words derived from Greek and with the ending -sis. | |||
My suggestion: | |||
# comma name: palingenesis/symbiosis or palingenetic/symbiotic comma. | |||
# temperament/chord name: palingnetic/symbiotic temperament/chords. | |||
