Tithe grece mamille tithion mamilla uber.


Translation:

Tithe is the Greek word for Latin mamille {"breasts"} and Greek tithion in Latin is mamilla {"breast"} or uber {"udder"}.


Commentary:

Greek τιτθή /titthḗ/ , pl. τιτθαί /titthaí/ means "a woman’s breast(s)", the plural being pronounced /titthe/ in the itacist pronunciation, and τιτθίον /titthíon/ is the diminutive, meaning "little breast".
