Pentade? Or does that sound too much like a commercial drink? However I
can tell you that half a byte (8bits) is a nibble. All of which probably
goes back to pieces of 8, and the quarter being 2 bits. When we go metric
will the inch actually go away? We will still have inching along and inch
worms. Just some random thoughts.

If decade is a group or grouping of ten, what is a group of five?
