19683/19208, the skwares comma or skwaresma, is a 7-limit and 2.3.7 subgroup comma of about 42 cents. It can be defined as the difference between a perfect eleventh (8/3) and a stack of four 9/7 supermajor thirds. In the 2.3.7.11 subgroup, it decomposes into (99/98)² × 243/242, and in the full 7-limit, it decomposes as (81/80)²/(2401/2400).

In the 2.3.7 subgroup, this comma defines skwares temperament, whose obvious extensions to primes 5 (squares) and 11 are dictated by the above decompositions.
