121/81, the Alpharabian narrow fifth (694.8¢), is a rastma 243/242 (7.1¢) below the just fifth 3/2. It is the interval created by stacking two 11/9 neutral thirds, and can be considered a meantone fifth. It differs from the marvellous fifth 112/75 by 3025/3024. Since 38edo represents 11/9 near perfectly, it also represents this near perfectly as well.
When treated as a meantone fifth, it is incredibly close to 1/3-comma meantone, three of these intervals differing from 5/3 by only the parimo.
