'''1728/1715''', the '''orwellisma''', is a [[7-limit]] comma measuring about 13.1 cents and is equal to ([[8/5]])/([[7/6]])<sup>3</sup> and thus often makes sense to temper in any temperament where the generator (or a multiple thereof) is a slightly sharpened 7/6, such as in [[orwell]]. Tempering this comma leads to temperaments in the [[orwellismic family]].
