[[Tempering out]] this comma in the 11-limit gives the rank-4 biyatismic temperament (→ [[Rank-4 temperament #Biyatismic (121/120)]]). Tempering it out in the 2.3.5.11 [[subgroup]] gives the rank-3 [[protomere]] temperament. See [[biyatismic clan]] for extensions of protomere. In such systems, 11/10 and 12/11 are equated, enabling [[biyatismic chords]]. This is in contrast to the more familiar tempering out of [[81/80]], which results in meantone and other temperaments, in which [[10/9]] is equated with [[9/8]]. Equal temperaments in which 121/120 is tempered out include {{EDOs| 15, 22, 29, 31, 46, 53 }} and others. | [[Tempering out]] this comma in the 11-limit gives the rank-4 biyatismic temperament (→ [[Rank-4 temperament #Biyatismic (121/120)]]).

== Etymology == | |||
The biyatisma was presumably named by [[Gene Ward Smith]] in 2010 since it seems this wiki was the place where it made its first appearance<ref>See [https://en.xen.wiki/index.php?title=Small_comma&oldid=13575 ''Small comma'' (Revision as of 23:54, 1 June 2010 by Wikispaces>genewardsmith)]</ref>. The name seems to come from [[Wikipedia:Bayati (maqam)|maqam bayati]], which features a neutral second. It is yet to be found out why it is spelt with an "i" instead of an "a". | |||
