ETTI

Etti is a term that appears in different contexts across languages and cultures. In Italian, etto is a common unit of mass equal to 100 grams, and etto’s plural form is etti. This usage is prevalent in everyday speech and in culinary or market contexts, with phrases such as “un etto di formaggio” or “due etti di prosciutto.” Because etto is a non-SI measure, its use is mainly informal and tied to practical quantities rather than precise scientific notation.

Etti is also found as a given name or nickname in some cultures. It can be used as a shortened form of Esther or exist as an independent name. A well-known bearer of a related spelling is Etty Hillesum, a Dutch Jewish diarist whose writings from 1941 to 1943 have been widely studied for their insights into the Holocaust and spiritual life. The spelling Etti or Etty appears in various historical and contemporary records as a personal name.

Beyond these uses, etti may occur as part of longer words or in transliteration from other languages, where it does not carry a specific universal meaning. In such cases, the meaning of “etti” is context-dependent, and disambiguation relies on surrounding text or usage.
