In French, no generic term exist; when we translated the documentation
we had to create a rather ugly mathematical word:
since the terms we use are
triolet ==> meaning triplet
quartolet
quintolet
etc...
We created the
"n-olet"
which is a neologism I haven't seen anywhere in French.
But when I'll translate the comic into French, I think I'll just use
"triolet" since it's by far the most common word.
