21/11, the large undecimal diminished octave is an 11-limit interval, and the octave complement of 22/21. Of note is that the Huygens-Fokker Foundation dubs this interval the undecimal major seventh, which, in light of the size of 33/32, also makes sense, resulting in this interval being perhaps best classified as a "sevtave" – a type of cross between a seventh and an octave.
