Multipliers like bi-, tri-, etc. can be combined: 6-fold = tribi-, 8-fold = quadbi-, 9-fold = tritri-, 10-fold = quinbi-, 12-fold = quadtri-, 14-fold = sepbi-, 15-fold = quintri-, 16-fold = quadquad-, etc. Higher primes use their color word, but with the suffix '''-e''' ("eh") for exponent:

* 11-fold = '''le-''' (as in "legit"), 13-fold = '''the-''' (as in "thesaurus"). 17 = '''se-''', 19 = '''ne-''', 23 = '''twenty-the-''', 29 = '''twenty-ne-''', etc.

Note that sep- means 7-fold, while se- means 17-fold. Multipliers affect all subsequent syllables until the '''-a-''' delimiter occurs: ~~trizogu~~ = z3g3 and ~~trizo~~-agu = z3g. The "a" in la and sa acts as a delimiter: ~~trilayo~~ = L3y and ~~trila~~-triyo = L3y3. More examples of temperaments:
