The '''phaotic comma''', or '''phaotisma''', is an [[unnoticeable comma|unnoticeable]] [[13-limit]] comma with a ratio of '''256000/255879''', and a size of approximately 0.82 [[cent]]s. It is significant in that it is the interval separating a stack of two [[81/80|meantone commas]] from [[40/39]]. Tempering it out thus splits 40/39 into two equal halves, each representing 81/80leads to a form of '''phaotic temperament'''.
