The '''triagnoshenisma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[11-limit]] comma- specifically of the 2.3.5.11 subgroup- with a ratio of '''171885556953/171798691840''', and a size of roughly 0.88 [[cent]]s.  Its name comes from two of the main ways of conceptualizing it.  Firstly, it is the amount by which a stack of three [[1024/891]] inframinor thirds falls short of a [[243/160]] lamb fifth, hence the first part of the comma's name- from the Latin ''tri-'' prefix plus the Latin word [[Wiktionary: agnus #Latin|''agnus'']], with the linking ''-o-'' replacing the ending of "agnus".  Secondly, it is the amount by which a stack of three [[8192/8019]] inframinor seconds fall short of a [[16/15]] minor second, which, since both of these intervals are types of second in diatonic-based interval naming schemes, leads to the second part of the comma's name- from the Hebrew word [[Wiktionary: שני #Hebrew|''shení'']], meaning "second".

Although this comma is unnoticeable, it is tempered out in [[EDO]]s such as [[29edo]], [[65edo]] and [[159edo]].
