tonne

Etymology
From. .

Noun

 * 1)  A unit of mass equal to 1000 kilograms.

Usage notes
Even in British and Commonwealth use, the Americanism is sometimes employed where confusion might arise with the traditional English tons of 2000 or 2240 pounds. Alternatively, variant pronunciations of tonne have been promoted to help clarify its meaning. In particular, the British steel industry advocated for the pronunciation ("tunnie") during the 1970s and  (rhyming with "Don") is sometimes used for the same purpose.

Etymology
Compare 🇨🇬,. Compare also noponne, which features in the word for "ten". Two Proto-Siouan roots for "one" can be reconstructed: (apparently whence this word) and *wįyą, each one found in one branch and almost entirely missing from the other. (*nǫ is importantly also found in Quapaw hi nǫ xtį "once, one time", where -xtį is the morpheme denoting "_ times".)
