[edit]Etymology
[edit]From Proto-Finnic *meci (“honey”) (compare Estonian mesi), from Proto-Finno-Ugric *mete (compare Erzya медь (meď), Udmurt му (mu), Hungarian méz), which is probably borrowed from Proto-Indo-European *médʰu (whence English mead), or more specifically from Pre-Proto-Indo-Iranian.[1] In the sense “honey”, mostly displaced by the borrowed hunaja.
Pronunciation
[edit]Noun
[edit]mesi
- nectar (sweet liquid secreted by flowers to attract pollinating insects and birds)
- (archaic, dialectal) synonym of hunaja (“honey”)
