From {{inh|nl|dum|unce}} (1240), borrowed from {{der|nl|la|uncia}} (a twelfth of a pound) probably via {{der|nl|fro|once}}. <ref>[http://www.etymologiebank.nl/trefwoord/ons1 Etymologiebank (Dutch)]</ref>

====Noun====

# [[metric ounce]] (100 [[grams]])<!--NOT OUNCE!!!!-->

=====Usage notes=====
Prior to the law of 1820 that introduced the metric system in what then united both the Netherlands and Belgium a variety of measures ranging around ca 30 grams were known by this name. The law of 1820 attributed the name to the hectogram of 100 grams. In 1937 the IJkwet of the Netherlands officially abolished the term, but it is still commonly used.
