        No, you’re thinking of median. The meridiem is a small sum of money you get for a day’s expenses, typically from an employer when traveling.

          No, you’re thinking of perdiem. A meridian is actually just a fancy linguistic term for a word that names a part of a whole. Like how a wheel is part of a car.
