तोड़िए: com (साथ) + mensur — वही जो mensuration में है, जहाँ sides नापकर size मिलाते हैं। साथ नापने पर जो बराबर निकले, वह commensurate।

Split it: com (together) + mensur, the same root as mensuration, where you measure sides and match sizes. Things measured side by side that match in size or degree are commensurate.
