Original Wikitext content:
The Pentacircle Comma, 896/891, is similar to the Didymus or syntonic comma, 81/80, in that it makes a stack of four fifths equal a major third (octave equivalent). In the case of 81/80, however, the major third is 5/4, while with the Pentacircle comma, the major third is 14/11. [[Cantonpenta]] is an example of a scale that tempers out the pentacircle comma. Also, the MOSes with an octave period and 17\29 as a generator temper out the pentacircle comma. Finally, see the article on [[Pentacircle Chords]].
