- (originally) Very large, great.
- In the International System of Units and other metric systems of units, multiplying the unit to which it is attached by one million (106.) SI Symbol: M.
- (computing) Multiplying the unit to which it is attached by 220 (= 1,048,576, the binary number closest to a million). Computing symbol: Mi.
- (computing, marketing) Multiplying the unit to which it is attached by 210 × 103 (= 1,024,000, the binary round number closest to a million).
- (slang, augmentative) Really, very, uber-, super-.
- 2014, Michael Griffo, Starfall (The Darkborn Legacy), New York, NY: Kensington Publishing Corporation, →ISBN, page :Šablon:gbooks:
- What?! I'm not sure if I scream that out loud or if my inner voice bounces off the insides of my skull. Why is Archie once again meandering over to Team Nadine? Sounds like I'm not the only one who's mega-confused.
Usage notes
uredi- Because the meaning "220" is in conflict with the meaning "one million" used with SI units, the alternative mebi- has been proposed and promulgated as an international standard, with Mi as its symbol.

uredi- (very large): megalo-, (before a vowel) megal-
- (before a vowel) meg-
- (augmentative): super-, supra-, hyper-, ultra-, uber-, arch-, over-, giga-, -zilla, grand
