Twelve...
It means twelve (in Latin), but in this context it's used to signal an amendment inserting a new provision into an EU article, i.e.
"For amendments inserting a new provision, the Romance languages and Dutch use the following terms: bis, ter, quater, quinquies, sexies, septies, octies, nonies, decies, undecies, duodecies,..."

It's probably best left untranslated

...or even twelve times, sorry!

According to the same reference duodecies corresponds to \"k\" in the English system, so you could also write Article 93 (k)
Hope this helps!
