Original Wikitext content:

The most common kind of comma pump encountered in "non-xenharmonic" Western music is the meantone comma pump, for which there is a separate page: [[Meantone comma pump examples]]. These work in any meantone temperament, including [[19edo]], [[26edo]], [[31edo]], etc. Since standard notation is based on meantone, these don't appear unusual in any way.

However, comma pumps of other commas tempered out by [[12edo]] are also found. These necessarily involve spelling an interval unusually (for example spelling a major third as a diminished fourth), because they involve an enharmonic pun (e.g. G#~Ab).
