A '''forpet''', '''lippie''' or '''lippy''' was a Scottish unit of dry measure equal to a quarter or fourth-part of a peck.
A lippie was so called because a ''leap'' was a traditional name for a ''basket'' in Scotland. <ref>{{citation |title=The Edinburgh History of the Scots Language |page=422 |isbn=0748607544 |author=Charles Jones |year=1997}}</ref>
