See simila in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /ˈsi.mi.la/ [Classical-Latin], [ˈs̠ɪmɪɫ̪ä] [Classical-Latin], /ˈsi.mi.la/ (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical), [ˈsiːmilä] (note: modern Italianate Ecclesiastical)
Etymology: Borrowed from an Eastern language, likely Semitic. Appears first in the first century AD, at the height of expansion of the Roman Empire. An Ancient Greek σεμίδᾱλις (semídālis) also exists, presumably borrowed directly from Aramaic סְמִידָא / ܣܡܻܝܕܳܐ (səmīḏā), from Akkadian 𒆠𒅔𒆠𒅔𒄯𒄯 (/⁠samīdu⁠/, “a type of fine groats, coarse flour, semolina”), related to Akkadian 𒀀𒊏𒄯𒄯 (/⁠samādu⁠/, “to grind fine”).
