çekim: çoğul гра́мове
köken: Borrowed from German Gramm and Russian грамм (gramm), from Latin gramma, from Ancient Greek γράμμα (grámma, “a small weight, a scruple”).
Suppletive superlative of parvus, comparative minor, from Proto-Indo-European *(s)mey(h₁)- (“small, little”), whence also Latin minuō, Gothic 𐌼𐌹𐌽𐌽𐌹𐌶𐌰 (minniza, “smaller”). Contains the same suffix as in īnfimus (“lowest”), but details are uncertain. Related to Ancient Greek μῑκρός (mīkrós, “little, small”), English smicker.
