decaplet[edit]

Google has mention, but any useage? (decuplet would be OK - different meaning) SemperBlotto 22:26, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Found three OK-looking cites (all for the plural though). Most occurrences actually seem to be variant/erroneous spellings of decuplet. -- Visviva 09:14, 30 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
It is fairly rare to see any of those as singulars anyway, except as attributive (even triplet, which is more common, is fairly rare as a singular in that sense, it seems to have more specialized senses in electronics, though, which skew the results when searching for "a triplet").
