Nothing obvious on Google book search. Needs formatting if OK. SemperBlotto 17:38, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- I've assembled some citations but it looks like a word that has been repeatedly nonced. No way the definitions can be supported based on what I've found. DCDuring TALK 19:01, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- The hyphenated citations currently on the citations page (except perhaps the last of them) seem clearly to mean "three-quarter", "of three quarters". If all these people thought they were coining words, you'd think some of them would put it in quotation marks or add "if you will" or something, which none of them did (in the quoted passages). I think they're good cites (not for the RFVed spelling, though).—msh210℠ (talk) 20:10, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
