Unit Definition (momme [Japan])
The momme [Japan] is a traditional Japanese weight unit corresponding to the Chinese mace. Jewelers continue to use the momme to measure the weight of cultured pearls; for this purpose it equals exactly 3.75 grams (about 0.132 ounce) or 18.75 carats. The unit is commonly pronounced "mommy" in English.

Unit Definition (qintar [Arab])
The qintar is a traditional Arabic unit of weight, often called the cantar in English. The qintar is the Arabic counterpart of the European quintal. The unit varied in size from market to market and over time. In recent years, the qintar has been interpreted as an informal metric unit equal to 50 kilograms (110.23 pounds); traditional qintars tended to be a few percent larger than this. The qintar is equal to 100 rotls.
