'''120/119''' is a [[17-limit]] [[superparticular]] ratio of about 14.49 cents. It is the difference between [[20/17]] and [[7/6]], [[17/10]] and [[12/7]], or [[30/17]] and [[7/4]]. Tempering this comma allows you to assign 10:12:15:17 as the inverse of 4:5:6:7, a much simpler version of what would otherwise be 70:84:105:120. [[William Lynch's Thoughts on Septimal Harmony and 22 EDO|William Lynch]] calls this the minor tetrad, and so equating it with the inverse of the major tetrad is quite useful.

By tempering it out is defined the '''lynchismic temperament''', which enables the [[lynchismic chords]]. EDOs supporting this temperament includes {{EDOs|10, 12, 19, 22, 26, 31, 41}} and [[53edo|53]].
