In [[11-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''16/11''' is an '''undecimal subfifth''' measuring about 648.7¢. It is the inversion of [[11/8]], the undecimal superfourth. While the name "undecimal subfifth" suggests some variation of a perfect fifth, the subfifth is generally considered an interval in it's own right being like neither a perfect fifth nor the tritone. Accordingly, this interval, or rather the tempered version found in [[24edo]], was dubbed the '''minor fifth''' by [[Ivan Wyschnegradsky]], and, given its connections to [[Alpharabian tuning]], it can also be somewhat similarly dubbed the '''Axirabian paraminor fifth''' or even the '''just paraminor fifth'''. | In [[11-limit]] [[just intonation]], '''16/11''' is an '''undecimal subfifth''' measuring about 648.7¢.
