Either Mc or Mac is used to mean "son of" by BOTH Scottish and Irish.  Armenian's use "ian" for the same purpose,  Armenian is litterally "son of Armen".  Ibn is used in the Middle East.

IF you mean  (both adjectives) "light in weight", then neither.  If you mean "light in weight as compared to bulk", then the bricks.  If placed on a balance scale, which will be indicated as heavier, a pound of gold or a pound of sand?  And why?

About $1,000 US.  7,000 grains = 1 pound Avoirdupous = 453.59237 grams  Ergo, 7,000/453.59237 = 15.432358352 grains/gram.  33.1 grams x 15.432358352 = 510.811061481 grains.  14kt gold is 14/24 pure (99.999%) gold.  So 14/24 x 510.811061481 = 297.973119197 grains. 1 ounces Troy (scale used to measure precious metals & gems) = 480 grains.  297.973119197/480 = .62077733166 … Read more
