From Wikisource
R’ Meir says, “That for which it is the way to roughly measure,
Yet it is measured in small amounts,
It is of secondary importance to the rough amounts,
And that for which it is the way to measure small, but was measured roughly,
The rough amount is of secondary importance to the small.
Which is a rough measurement?
Three dry Kabin, and on wet, a Dinar [in weight].”
R’ Yosi says, “Baskets of figs and baskets of grapes and a heap of greens,
Every time they are sold by approximation, they are exempt.”
