Trying to make sure I'm saying this stuff right.

:::: I can tell you that I've already named 1771561/1769472 the "[[Nexus comma]]".  I can also say that I personally use the terms "Paramajor Fourth" and "Parminor Fifth" for [[11/8]] and [[16/11]] respectively, and that I also use the terms "Paraminor Fourth" and "Paramajor Fifth" for [[128/99]] and [[99/64]] respectively.  Two 11/8 intervals add up to [[121/64]], which I classify as a certain type of major seventh, though we would need a prefix to distinguish this from the 243/128 major seventh.  Similarly to the naming scheme involving whole tones and semitones, two instances of the [[33/32]] interval, which I call the "Parachromatic quartertone" or the "Parasuperprime", add up to [[1089/1024]], which I call the "parapotome".  The Parapotome, adds up together with 128/121, which I call the "Alpharabian limma", to form to the diatonic [[9/8]] whole tone.  In terms of quartertones, the Alpharabian limma can be broken down into a single instance of 33/32 plus [[4096/3993]], which I call the "Paradiatonic quartertone".  Truth be told, I'm familiar with both 24edo and 159edo, so I can envision it either way.  Also, in all honesty, I'm curious as to what you think about my current naming scheme for [[Alpharabian tuning]], as the the 11-prime is really good for establishing quartertones, even if you also have to use the 3-prime to do it, and of course, I'm treating the terms "Paramajor" and "Paraminor" in much same way that "Major and "Minor" are treated in your system. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 17:42, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

:::: Oh, and yes, I should have said [[27/16]] rather than 32/27.  My bad, I guess I was thinking about the chain of [[128/121]] diatonic semitones. --[[User:Aura|Aura]] ([[User talk:Aura|talk]]) 17:09, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
