Square root, cube root - spelling
Hello everyone!
I got a question and I'm not sure if I can google the answer.
There is a square root, cube root. What do English native speakers call for example 81 to the power of one-fourth, one-fifth? It's a lame way of spelling it right? I hope you got my question and you know what I mean.
Please spell it out if you can. I'll be enormously grateful for that!
Thank you!

We say the 4th root of 81, the 5th root of 81 etc. There is no nice term like there is for square root, or cubic root.
