'''37/36''', or the '''31-limit Wyschnegradsky ~quartertone''', is a 2.3.37 subgroup comma. It is the amount by which 37/32 (the 37th harmonic) exceeds the Pythagorean (major) whole tone of 9/8. It is significant in [[Helmholtz-Ellis notation]] as the formal comma to translate a Pythagorean interval to a nearby 37-limit (prefix???){{clarify}} interval. | '''37/36''', or the '''31-limit Wyschnegradsky ~quartertone''', is a 2.3.37 subgroup comma.
