"digit," "palm," "span" and "cubic" units of length slowly lost preference to the length units "inch," "foot," and "yard." Our words "inch" and "ounce" are both derived from that Latin word. The word "yard" comes from the Saxon word "gird". In ancient times, the body ruled when it came to measuring. The length of a foot, the width of a finger, and the distance of a step were all accepted measurements.
