35-tET or 35-[[EDO]] refers to a tuning system which divides the octave into 35 steps of approximately [[cent|34.29¢]] each.
As 35 is 5 times 7, 35edo allows for mixing the two smallest xenharmonic [[macrotonal edos]]: [[5edo]] and [[7edo]]. A single degree of 35edo represents the difference between 7edo's narrow fifth of 685.71¢ and 5edo's wide fifth of 720¢. Because it includes 7edo, 35edo tunes the 29th harmonic with +1 cent of error. 35edo can also represent the 2.3.5.7.11.17 [[Just_intonation_subgroups|subgroup]] and 2.9.5.7.11.17 subgroup, because of the accuracy of 9 and the flatness of all other subgroup generators (7/5 and 17/11 stand out, having less than 1 cent error). Therefore among whitewood tunings it is very versatile; you can switch between these different subgroups if you don't mind having to use two different 3/2s to reach the inconsistent 9 (a characteristic of whitewood tunings), and if you ignore [[22edo]]'s more in-tune versions of 35edo MOS's and consistent representation of both subgroups. 35edo has the optimal patent val for [[greenwood]] and [[secund]] temperaments, as well as 11-limit [[muggles]], and the 35f val is an excellent tuning for 13-limit muggles. 35edo is the largest edo with a lack of a diatonic scale.
