كسورات

Arabic. Plural of كَسْر (kasr). --2001:16A2:EAAE:4B00:455B:3F6:DE8D:220D 20:01, 12 February 2022 (UTC)

• From {{R:ar:Wehr-3}}: "كسر kasr breaking, fracturing; shattering, fragmentation; — (pl. كسور kusūr) break, breach, fracture; crack, rupture; fracture of a bone; (pl. كسور kusūr, كسورات) fraction (arith.)". Not a true use, but evidence it is real in a more limited sense than currently defined. Vox Sciurorum (talk) 00:21, 13 February 2022 (UTC)
  • Yeah, this seems to be used in obsolete works about mathematics, various Arabic occurrences of which you find on Google Books e.g. here line 21, found here copiable without punctuation, else you find it currently in Persian (on the free web only) and in bare Ottoman books (about mathematics) as you noticed. I have added this one and relabelled it, which is enough as only “Modern Standard Arabic” is WDL not “Classical Arabic”, and I don’t want to go down the rabbithole of obsolete mathematics, but as said there are more that can be added.
