Unnumbered source etymology
Original entry ↗A traditional Portuguese unit of liquid volume, equal to 14–26 liters. · Alternative form of almud, similar units of liquid volume in Spain and Turkey.
From Portuguese almude, from Andalusian Arabic مد (mudd), from Arabic مُدّ (mudd), probably via Aramaic 𐡬𐡣𐡩𐡠 (mdyʾ) and מוֹדְיָא (moḏyā) or Classical Syriac ܡܘܿܕܝܳܐ (moḏyā) from Akkadian 𒉘𒈨𒌍 (/maddattu/middattu/, “kind of vessel, unit of volume”). Doublet of almud. Cognate with Ancient Greek μόδιος (módios) and Latin modius.
