The Pythrabian comma is the 11-limit small comma 94489280512/94143178827, which measures roughly 6.35 cents. It is the interval which, when tempered out, equates 11/8 with a stack of twenty-three 3/2 perfect fifths octave-reduced, and also equates a stack of two Pythagorean commas with 33/32. The name "Pythrabian comma" comes from 11/8 and 3/2 both being the generators for Alpharabian tuning, with 3/2 additionally being the generator for Pythagorean tuning- however the name is even more appropriate in light of the aforementioned connection with both the Pythagorean comma and 33/32.
It is tempered out in 41edo and 53edo, where 11/8 is mapped to the triply-augmented second (AAA2, e.g. C–D♯𝄪).
