Sevenfold! Whatever happened to -fold? It's all 10X this and 5X that these days, nobody says times or fold any more

The hyphen tends to get dropped when it a word becomes more ... commonplace.

Huh? I think you have misunderstood. I'm not talking about a hyphen.

My pet peeve is all the dumbasses pronouncing "10X" as "ten ex"...
