Hebrew to English translations [PRO] Law: Contract(s) / Ketubah | | Hebrew term or phrase: או מהיום או מרוים או מכוים או מדוים | [I understand that this question should be posted in the language pair Aramaic - English, but it has words in Hebrew too, so I posted it here.]
In an orthodox ketubah that word is found handwritten in the following sentence:
כלתא בתולתא שפירתא דא והוות ליה לאינתו לדא נדוניא דהנעלת ליה כלתא דנא לחתנא דנא מעות במזומן ***מרוים*** גם תכשיטי כסף וזהב ובגדים ורהיטים וש"ע וכיוצא שעלו לסך ***מרוים*** והודה החתן הנ"ל שקבלם ועלו ובאו לידו ורשותו במושלם עד סוף הפרוטה האחרונה וכי החתן דנא והוסף לה מדיליה כפל כנהוג על עיקר הכתובה סך ***מרוים*** ס"ה |

| | English translation:"Certain Amount" | Explanation: In several versions of the Ketuba (either אשכנז or ספרד etc.) there is the term סך מסוים which means "certain amount" and I do believe that this is the case. Please see below a sample of this term as appears in an אשכנז version:
סַךְ הַכֹּל כְּתוּבְּתָא דָא נְדוּנְיָא דֵין וְתוֹסֶפְתָא דָא עוֹלִים לְסַךְ כֶּסֶף זוּזֵי מָאתָן וְעוֹד ______ [סך מסוים] לְבַד כֹּל בְּגָדֶיהַ וְתַכְשִׁיטֶיהַ וְחֲפָצֶיהַ הַשַּׁיָיכִים לְגוּפָה. |
