these prefixes are mixed and matched, in keeping with the Greek numerical prefixes mono and di, the next would be tri and tetra

πŸ€“ the more you know 🌈🌟

Except di is Latin. Greek would be bi. So for one it would be uni, three would be tri.

You’ve got that mixed up (: di is Greek, bi is latin. You are correct about Latin prefixes being uni, bi, tri, and quad. Think of the word bicentennial, it is Latin based.

Yeah, I actually mixed it up with du (and I also mixed up cardinal and multiple prefixes). So to correct, in Latin it should be: simcaprio, bicaprio, tercaprio, quatercaprio etc...

OP, please title your posts something more descriptive/creative. This isn't facebook, and someone might want to search for this pic at some point in the future

I feel like Leonardo Monocaprio should be half of Leonardo DiCaprio... And then go from there... but I guess it looks weird then.

I'll have a Quadcaprio please, no cream
