One half, one third, one fourth, one several-th??
Hello,
I want to say not exactly one fourth second or one fifth second, but something around this range.
So can I say one several-th second , or one a few-th second?
How do you say it correctly?

Hi,
No, absolutely not. Say "a fraction of a second."
