Fun language fact: "daka" is hebrew for "minute" but it's literal meaning is
"thin one" figurative being "the thin (shorter) time measure" in contradiction with an hour ("sha'aa")
pars minuta prima (first small part) -> minute (1/60th of a circle, or of an hour)
secunda minuta -> second (1/60 of a minute)
minutus -> minute (adj), "very small in size or degree, diminutive or limited, petty"
