Question:
If One is single, two is twin, three is triple, four is quadruple, five is ????? what is five and where would I find the rest of the numbers,six, seven, eight, nine, etc.

Thank you

Hi Billie,

I looked in my dictionary and found

five --- quintuple
six --- sextuple
seven --- septuple
eight --- octuple
After that I am not sure. In fact after quadruple I would probably say five-tuple, six-tuple, seven-tuple,...

Cheers,
Penny
