==Heraldry== The [[heraldry|heraldic]] 'trefoil' is a stylized [[clover]]. It should not be confused with the figure named in French heraldry {{lang|fr|tiercefeuille}} ("threefoil"), which is a stylized flower with three petals, and differs from the heraldic trefoil in being not slipped.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.symbols.com/encyclopedia/24/2451.html |title=Online Encyclopedia of Western Signs and Ideograms - Symbol 24:51 |publisher=Symbols.com |date=1997–2006 |access-date=5 January 2010}}</ref>{{efn|The French terms '{{lang|fr|quartefeuille}}' and '{{lang|fr|quintefeuille}}' are translated as 'quatrefoils' and 'cinquefoils'.}} <gallery> File:Héraldique meuble trèfle 1.svg|Trefoil in heraldry File:Blason famille fr Duprat.svg|''Or a fess sable between three trefoils vert'' File:Blason ville fr Boissy-sans-Avoir (Yvelines).svg|''Gules a cross flory argent between four tiercefeuilles Or'' File:16. varaždinska.jpg|Croatian trefoil badge worn by [[Royal Croatian Home Guard]] during [[Austria-Hungary]], depicting oak leaves<ref>{{Cite book |first=Miroslav |last=Krleža |author-link=Miroslav Krleža |title=Croatian God Mars |chapter=Kraljevska ugarska domobranska novela |page=130 |edition=1 |location=Zagreb |publisher=Minerva |date=1933 |isbn=9788601013537 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=yJE4AQAAIAAJ&q=trolistom+hrastovim |quote=U stara mirna vremena, kada je koji general držao smotru, pa se na cvjetnoj tratini skupili bataljoni zdravih četa u kalpacima i dolamama u paradi, svi okićeni trolistom hrastovim, svi ulašteni i izglačani, a trube udaraju i glazbe tresu zrakom, te tutnji kavalkada sa crvenim svilenim ruhom generaliteta i zelenim perjanicama, onda je bilo i neke inspiracije u tim puškohvatima.
