Not everyone knows wtf a Meridiem is.

It's the number in the middle of a set of numbers right? /s

No, you're thinking of median. The meridiem is a small sum of money you get for a day's expenses, typically from an employer when traveling.

No, you’re thinking of perdiem. A meridian is actually just a fancy linguistic term for a word that names a part of a whole. Like how a wheel is part of a car.
