octonary
Consisting of eight
Octonary means consisting of eight or based on the number eight.
The term appears in technical contexts—mathematics, music theory, or classification systems organized in groups of eight.
An octonary system counts by eights rather than tens.
The word is rare, with *eightfold* or *eight-part* more common in ordinary speech.
