"tetracosa-" meaning in All languages combined

See tetracosa- on Wiktionary

Prefix [English]

Etymology: Pseudo-loan from Ancient Greek, as if formed from τετρα- (tetra-) + εἴκοσι (eíkosi) by analogy with docosa-. However, Ancient Greek τετρακόσιοι (tetrakósioi) actually means “four hundred”, not “twenty-four”. The Ancient Greek word for “twenty-four” is εἰκοσιτέσσαρες (eikositéssares).
