Demi [3]


Demi [3] :

A traditional prefix meaning 1/2. The prefix is derived from the Latin dimedius, meaning a cut in the middle of something. In the original (1795) definition of the metric system, this prefix was allowed for the weight and volume units such as the gram, kilogram, and liter, but not for the length units. These uses have been obsolete for many years
