Nit.
"Duplexes, triplexes and fourplexes"
Why not quadplexes? The author also uses 'oneplex'.
- tallanvor 7y agoBecause fourplex is a common term for that type of dwelling. quadplex is also acceptable, but less normal.
- benj111 7y agoMy point was that quadplex would be internally consistent. That then means you can predict the ones you don't already know, is it tenplex or decaplex for example?
- tallanvor 7y agoLanguage is often not consistent. In the US I suspect you would rarely hear either term, although tenplex would be more likely. A development of that size would more likely to be in the form of a townhouse, with row house or terraced house being more likely in the UK.
