copper

mesi : copper

The Tarijan word for copper (metal) is mesi.

Mesi is last name that can be Italian in origin.

In other languages:
In Estonian "mesi" means "honey". In Finnish "mesi" means "nectar in flowers". In Italian "mesi" means "months".

International locations:
Mesi is the name of places in Papua New Guinea.

How I came up with this word:
Mesi is a mixture of the transliterated word for copper in Russian which is med' (медь), and the transliterated word for copper in Mongolian which is zes (зэс).
