The gnödva is a Medibgóëse word for a unit of linear measurement equivalent to 128 centimeters (50.4 inches). It is commonly used for measurements of distance great than ten meters and roughly less than a kilometer. It is also used frequently for the elevation of mountains or points, although the dwarven fathom tends to be more commonly used for elevation, especially in the Jaggudorns. For related units, see Medibgóëse System of Measurement. A gnödva can be divided into eight spranka and eight gnödva make a hambdda.
