Fyrdubbel

Fyrdubbel is a term of Swedish origin that translates to "fourfold" or "quadruple" in English. It is used to indicate a quantity or magnitude that is four times greater than a reference point or a standard. The word can be applied in various contexts, from simple numerical comparisons to more abstract concepts of increase or multiplication. For example, one might speak of a fyrdubbel increase in price, meaning the price has become four times what it was previously. Similarly, it can describe a situation where something has been duplicated or replicated four times over. The precise meaning is always relative to what is being multiplied. In mathematics, it would correspond to the operation of multiplying by four. The term itself is not commonly encountered outside of Swedish-speaking contexts but its meaning is straightforward and universally understandable through translation.
