/mɪt/

Forms: Old English mitta, Old English mitte, Old English–Middle English mytte, Middle English mytt; English regional (west midlands) 1600s 1900s– mitt, 1700s– mit.

Origin: A word inherited from Germanic.

Etymology: < an extended form of the Germanic base of mete v.¹ Compare (perhaps from a different ablaut grade) Middle Low German mette (also matte ), Old High German mezzo (Middle High German metze , German Metze a measure for corn, salt, etc.). Compare met n.¹ and i-met n., ultimately from the same Germanic base. Compare post-classical Latin mitta (frequently from 11th cent. in British sources in sense 1).Apparently attested in surnames from the mid 13th cent., as Robertus Mittemalte (1255 in a manuscript of probably a1400).

†1. A dry or liquid measure of capacity (in Old English use apparently equal to two ambers (amber n.¹ 3)), used for flour, corn, salt, honey, ale, wine, etc. Obsolete.
