In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''27/26''', the '''small tridecimal third tone''', appears as the interval between the Pythagorean major sixth of [[27/16]] and the thirteenth harmonic of [[13/8]]. It measures about 65.3{{cent}}. It is close in size to another 13-limit microtone – [[26/25]]. These intervals differ by the [[superparticular]] ratio [[676/675]], about 2.6{{cent}}, the island comma; tempering it out produces temperaments associated with [[The Archipelago]].


In [[13-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''27/26''', the '''small tridecimal third tone''', appears as the interval between the Pythagorean major sixth of [[27/16]] and the thirteenth harmonic of [[13/8]]. It measures about 65.3¢. It is close in size to another 13-limit microtone – [[26/25]]. These intervals differ by the [[superparticular]] ratio [[676/675]], about 2.6¢, the island comma; tempering it out produces temperaments associated with [[The Archipelago]].
27/26 is significant in [[Helmholtz-Ellis notation]] as the tridecimal formal comma which translates a Pythagorean interval to a nearby tridecimal interval, analogous to [[64/63]] and [[33/32]] for septimal and undecimal, respectively. However, in the [[Functional Just System]], that role is taken by [[1053/1024]].
