A collective term or plural form referring to groups of 12; sets of 12 items or units.
From Latin 'duodecim' (twelve) + '-ena' (collection suffix). The '-ena' suffix, similar to 'dozen,' creates collective nouns indicating groups of a specific number.
Just as a 'dozen' means 12 and 'gross' means 144, different cultures and professions have invented special words for quantities—duodedena represents one such systematic approach to naming groups!
