In French, no generic term exist; when we translated the documentation we had to create a rather ugly mathematical word: since the terms we use are triolet ==> meaning triplet quartolet quintolet etc... We created the "n-olet" which is a neologism I haven't seen anywhere in French. But when I'll translate the comic into French, I think I'll just use "triolet" since it's by far the most common word.
