'''352/351''', the '''major minthma''', '''major gentle comma''' or '''11/13-kleisma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[13-limit]] (also 2.3.11.13 [[subgroup]]) [[comma]] measuring about 4.9{{cent}}. This comma can be described in a number of ways. First, it is the difference between the tridecimal minor third of [[13/11]] and the Pythagorean minor third of [[32/27]], hence the name ''11/13''-kleisma. Second, it is the difference between various tridecimal intervals and their adjacent undecimal intervals such as:

This comma was known as the ''minthma'' from 2011. In 2022, [[Margo Schulter]] requested it should be changed to ''major''/''greater minthma'' to distinguish it from [[364/363]], which would gain the name ''minor''/''lesser minthma''. The ''major gentle comma'' was also added to this comma in contrast to the ''minor gentle comma'' of 364/363. Both commas were essential to define the [[gentle]] temperament.
