Where this word comes from

Borrowed from Latin triquetra (“three-cornered, triangular”), the feminine singular of triquetrus (“three-cornered, triangular”), probably through the phrase triquetra figura (“three-cornered figure”). The adjective is formed from tri- (“three”) and an element meaning “pointed, cornered”, perhaps ultimately related to *kʷeh₁d- (“to sharpen”). Compare Swedish trikvetra, Danish trikvetra, German Triqueta (also Triquetta and Triquetra)
