1089/1024, the Alpharabian chromatic semitone, or parapotome, is the interval that results from stacking two 33/32 quartertones together, and has a value of roughly 106.54589 cents. The term "parapotome" is a derivation from the word "apotome" by means of the prefix "para-"- the derivation signifying this interval's functional parallels to the more well-known 2187/2048. Because of its complexity and its relative obscurity, it is often equated to other nearby intervals through the tempering out of commas like 243/242 and or 1089/1088. When this interval is added together with 128/121, the result is a 9/8 whole tone.
