Where this word comes from
Attested from the 13th century. Apparently an alteration with influence from maior (“greater”) of the form mezurana, ultimately from Sanskrit मरुव (maruva, “marjoram”). According to Roberts, however, it is simply a variant of amāracus. Attested from the 6th century, mezurana replaced Classical amāracus, which was also derived from the Sanskrit word.
