'''85/84''', the '''monk comma''', is a [[17-limit]] [[superparticular ~~interval~~]]. It is the difference between [[6/5]] and [[17/14]], as well as [[7/5]] and [[17/12]].

'''85/84''', the '''monk comma''', is a [[small comma|small]] [[17-limit]] [[superparticular]] [[comma]] measuring about 20.5 [[cent]]s. It is the difference between [[6/5]] and [[17/14]], as well as [[7/5]] and [[17/12]].

~~== Etymology ==~~

The word ''monk'' for this comma was introduced by [[User:Xenllium|Xenllium]] in 2023. It was translated from Japanese word 僧侶 (そうりょ, sōryo), a play of its [[Color notation|color name]], ''soruyo'' (as resembling pronunciation).

== Notation ==

This comma can be represented as a secondary comma for 5C ({{Sagittal|\!}}) in Sagittal.

This comma can be represented as a secondary comma for 5C ({{Sagittal|\!}}) in [[Sagittal]].

== Temperaments ==

It can be [[tempering out|tempered out]] in the [[17-limit]], leading to a rank-6 temperament, or in the 2.3.5.7.17-subgroup, leading to a rank-4 temperament. However, 85/84 factors as [[225/224]] * [[256/255]] * [[289/288]] ({{S|15}} * {{S|16}} * {{S|17}}), so that it is natural to temper out all of them, leading to the 2.3.5.7.17 version of [[pajara]] temperament, which also tempers out [[50/49]]. From there we can see that 50/49 = [[99/98]] * [[100/99]], and tempering both out leads to the 2.3.5.7.11.17-subgroup version of pajara.

However, 85/84 factors as ([[225/224]])⋅([[256/255]])⋅([[289/288]]), i.e. ({{S|15}})⋅({{S|16}})⋅({{S|17}}), so that it is natural to temper out all of them, leading to the 2.3.5.7.17 version of [[pajara]] temperament, which also tempers out [[50/49]]. From there we can see that 50/49 = ([[99/98]])⋅([[100/99]]), and tempering both out leads to the 2.3.5.7.11.17-subgroup version of pajara.
