The ⚀triqua·timel (103z ⚀timels) is equivalent to the tricia·day (10−3z ⚀days). This comes out to exactly 50d|42z seconds, which makes it a minute-like quantity, although a bit shorter. For that reason, dozenalists in the past have suggested naming this a “minette”. However, perhaps we could find a name that is a little less beholden to the ancient Babylonian sexagesimal system. Primel proposes to nickname this unit the ⚀trice. The word “trice” already conveys the sense of a brief moment of time, but it also is something of a pun on the fact that this unit is the result of thrice dividing the ⚀day by dozens, or thrice multiplying the ⚀timel by dozens. So a ⚀trice consists of a dozen ⚀lulls. It is exactly intermediate on the logarithmic scale between the ⚀day and the ⚀timel: A ⚀day consists of 1000z|1728d ⚀trices, and a ⚀trice consists of 1000z|1728d ⚀vibes.
