1 definition found From Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) [web1913]: Meum \Me"um\, n. [L., neut. of meus mine.] Lit., mine; that which is mine; -- used in the phrase meum et tuum, or meum and tuum; as to confound meum and tuum, to fail to distinguish one's own property from that of others to be dishonest. Ancestors . . . generally esteemed more renowned for ancient family and high courage than for accurately regarding the trifling distinction of meum and tuum. --Sir W. Scott.
