Super-important 2T and 4T question (??)

 This is a serious question, believe it or not:

Two strokes are designated 2T, and four-strokes are designated 4T.
What's the 'T'?  Shouldn't it be an 'S'?

Are you serious? If they put a S in there, it would be spelled wrong! ;)

"As written on the Silkolene bottle I am holding:
English=Stroke
French=Temp
Spanish=Tiempo

and as mentioned earlier in this thread
German=Takt"

To me, 2T means 2x the thrills, 4T means 4x the trouble...

seems that the english word "stroke" is a just a little bit different
than the equivlent word of rest of the world languages.
