==Latin==

===Etymology===
An early borrowing from {{bor|la|grc|μᾶζα||bread}}, possibly via {{bor|la|ett|-}}. It is uncertain whether the long /aː/ was carried over. Early Latin regularly rendered the Greek sound represented by ⟨ζ⟩ as /ss/; compare {{m|la|patrissō}}. In Imperial times, when Greek borrowings were entering Latin with ⟨z⟩, the old {{m|la||massa}} remained, never replaced by {{m|la||*māza}}.
