I have some property documents that belong to my parents, and I am curious to visualize how big the property is.

If the document states (in somali) that the measurement is 920 mq--- what exactly does the mq stand for. What unit of measurement is this?


can anyone explain. Thanks.

Mq is metro quadro, the Italian abbreviation for square meters. So the size of that property is 920 square meters.
