The '''letter comma notation''' (LCN) is a notation scheme developed by [[User:CompactStar|CompactStar]] for [[just intonation]] up to the [[31-limit]] as well as [[regular temperament]]s based on it. It is based on [[3-limit]] notation with the letters H-Y used as accidentals representing higher-limit [[comma]]s (starting from H to avoid conflict with note names). Each prime limit uses 2 letters, one to ascend by a comma and one to descend by it. It bears some similarities to [[SKULO interval names]] and the [[Functional Just System]].
