double sneeze

(2009-12-10 22:45:59) 下一个
while we were preparing pancake, cc had a sneeze and told me she just had double sneeze. i corrected her that was single sneeze, she tried to explain that she had one single sneeze just now, and she had another single sneeze earlier on, two single sneeze is double sneeze. good reasoning but i told her double sneeze happen at the same time.

and yes, after 2 seconds, she asked me what do we say when she has 3 sneezes together, and 4 sneezes.

later that 5 min, she had great fun making double sneezes, triple sneezes and even quadruple sneezes. talking about this, i realize i have to find out what comes after quandruple, i know she will ask later on.

this is what i found from wikipedia:

single (1) (also: singleton, sole, only, etc.)
Double (2) (also: pair, twice)
Triple (3) (also: triplet, treble, thrice, threesome, troika, trio)
Quadruple (4)
Quintuple or Pentuple (5)
Sextuple or Hextuple (6)
Septuple (7)
Octuple (8)
Nonuple (9)
Decuple (10)
Hendecuple or Undecuple (11)
Duodecuple (12)
Centuple (100)
