Talk:352/351: Difference between revisions

Line 21:

::::::: No, nothing has changed in that respect. I wonder how you got that impression. I recently added a bunch of new sections to comma pages about their use in Sagittal. Maybe you only happened to see the ones where the sagittal was pointing downward? This happens about half of the time, because it's more important for the comma's 2,3-free form to be superunison than it is for the comma itself. So in this case, when speaking of the 13/11k, we look at the ratio 351/352 = ('''13''' * 3³) / ('''11''' * 2⁵). It also happens this way for the 5C, because it's the 80/81 form where the 5 is in the numerator. But if you look at the 11M, for an example of the other type, it's the 33/32 form where both the 2,3-form and the comma itself are super together, when the 11 is in the numerator and 33 > 32.

::::::: Ah, but I see that Dave heard your concern too and already went around to all the pages we worked on already and added the other sagittal direction. Hope these together help to clarify. --[[User:Cmloegcmluin|Cmloegcmluin]] ([[User talk:Cmloegcmluin|talk]]) 15:37, 9 October 2024 (UTC)

== On '''major''' vs '''minor''' minthma ==

This comma used to be called "minthma" (no major/minor distinction). I don't know about you, but I always get the major/minor distinction mixed up… "minthma" for 352/351 was fine, a perfect name for a very important comma. I propose restoring "minthma" for 352/351 and a new name "gentilthirdsma" or "gentilthirds comma" for 364/363 that better conveys (in my opinion at least) the nature of the equivalence, and resolves the ambiguity.

896/891 can stay as "pentacircle comma". No need for "majthma".
