'Penta' ; Latin for five(5), hence 5 vertices.
Modern mathemtica and science falls back on a lot of Latin and Classical Greek names.
Hence
Bi/Di - 2
Tri = 3
Quad/Tetra = 4
Penta = 5
Hexa = 6
Hepta = 7
Octa = 8
Nona = 9
Deca = 10
Centa = 100
Mille = 1000
Even if you only learn the most base of Latin and Classical Greek , you would understandfrom much of the scientific nomenclature(naming system).
