1089/1088, otherwise known as the twosquare comma, is an unnoticeable comma of the 17-limit with a monzo of [-6 2 0 0 2 0 -1, and a value of roughly 1.59048 cents. It is significant as the amount by which a stack of two 33/32 quartertones exceeds one 17/16 large septendecimal semitone. It is also the amount by which an octave-reduced stack of two 16/11 undecimal sub-fifths falls short of one 18/17 small septendecimal semitone. Tempering it out leads to a form of twosquare temperament, and enables twosquare chords.
