'''441/440''', also known as '''Werckmeister's undecimal septenarian schisma''', or more simply, the '''werckisma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[superparticular]] [[11-limit]] comma with a size of roughly 3.93 [[cent]]s. It is the difference between [[21/20]] and [[22/21]], and between [[80/63]] ( = ([[10/9]])([[8/7]])) and [[14/11]], as well as the amount by which a stack of two [[21/16]] septimal subfourths exceeds a single [[55/32]] supermajor sixth. It also arises as the following comma differences: ([[49/48]])/([[55/54]]), ([[56/55]])([[64/63]]), ([[81/80]])/([[99/98]]), ([[126/125]])/([[176/175]]), and ([[243/242]])/([[540/539]]).
