Etymology 2

Probably via Aramaic 𐡬𐡣𐡩𐡠 (mdyʾ) / מוֹדְיָא (moḏyā) / ܡܘܿܕܝܳܐ (moḏyā) from Akkadian 𒉘𒈨𒌍 (/⁠maddattu, middattu⁠/, “a measure of capacity for dates, water, and other things; a vessel”), whence also Ancient Greek μόδιος (módios) and Latin modius. Take the rarer volume measure names Arabic مُدْي (mudy) and Old Armenian մոդ (mod) into account.

Noun

مُدّ • (mudd) m (plural أَمْدَاد (ʔamdād) or مِدَاد (midād))

a dry measure varying in size by several liters [to 20^th c.]
