Talk:Triacontadigon

This name follows the reasonably often repeated system up to 100-gons (here's an example, but omits kai like we do throughout Wikipedia). Double sharp (talk) 06:09, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Nevertheless this old source gives tricontadoagon for {32}. Double sharp (talk) 06:13, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
In fact, we have a slight problem in that the names with kai have two independent sources, but the names without kai appear not to be used very much (with the exception of icositetragon for {24}). So maybe we should use the kai throughout on Wikipedia from triskaidecagons on up? Double sharp (talk) 06:15, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I picked the article name based on the system given at polygon#Constructing_higher_names. Hopefully I've added all the alternate names now. Tom Ruen (talk) 08:00, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
