"septisyllabically" was probably an intentional neologism, in an attempt to be clever: "septi" from "septum", which is Latin for "seven", "syllabi" from "syllable", "ically" = "in the manner of": ie, "it's a seven-syllable way of saying 'associative array'" ('associative array' does indeed have seven syllables)
