sesqui-

Instead just sesqui (or ses) is used by itself.

The name originates from the numerical prefix sesqui- meaning "one and a half".

NZ$150,000 worth of fireworks launched Day 1 of Sesqui 1990.

Sometimes such configuration is called sesquipolar, even though the origin of this term in Latin (sesqui) means a ratio of 1.5.

Although planned to run for six weeks, Sesqui 1990 closed after only two weeks with debts in excess of NZ$6.4 million.

Sesqui, Latin for one-and-one-half times, may refer to:

Neither the Sesqui organisers nor the Arts Festival organisers were prepared to alter their plans.

A spectacular commercial and administrative failure, the Sesqui event has subsequently become an icon of corporate mismanagement within New Zealand popular culture.

The Sesqui festival was planned to include a wide range of cultural, trade and scientific exhibits as well as entertainment events and funfair amusements.

It is an agglutinative exocentric compound of sesqui and pes, meaning 'one and a half feet long', with reference both to size and hypermetry.

All the intervals with prefix sesqui- are justly tuned, and their frequency ratio, shown in the table, is a superparticular number (or epimoric ratio).

Maybe they should use "bismous"... Every now and then the prefix "sesqui-" gets used to denote an oxide in between two small-integer oxides.

Isocomene is a naturally occurring sesqui terpene first isolated from the rayless golden rod Isocoma wrightii, from which it derives its name.

Two iconic billboards promoting Sesqui 1990 remained standing for a number of months after the event's premature closure, apparently because the organisers could not afford to have them removed.

This involvement of the Chinese community in 'the Sesqui' was partly about alerting Sydneysiders to China's plight and partly about raising money.

Other island groups in the vicinity include the Chapman Islands, Sesqui Islands, and Wilmot Islands.

The root of some of these terms comes from Latin sesqui- "one and a half" (from semis "a half" + -que "and") describing the ratio 3:2.

Sesqui is Latin for "one and one-half": there are three parts oxygen to two parts iron or aluminium; hence the ratio is one and one-half.

One of these, featuring an image of gleeful Sesqui visitors, was quickly defaced with graffiti reading "And I laughed and laughed and laughed".

During a radio interview, Wellington City Councillor Ruth Gotlieb maintained that it was "every Wellingtonian's civic duty to attend Sesqui."

The collapse of the Sesqui 1990 festival forced a number of small companies that had been contracted to supply various goods and services to the event into receivership and/or bankruptcy.

The Sesqui Islands are an island group located in the Coronation Gulf, south of Victoria Island, in the Kitikmeot Region, Nunavut, Canada.
