(מז) ביושר - פי' משפת הבגד מודדים ביושר הג' אצבעות וכן השיעור דקשר גודל בין באורך ובין ברוחב כדלקמן בסוף ס"י ואין מודדין השיעורים באלכסון שע"י האלכסון מתמעט המדידה לערך ב' חומשין [ב"י]

English Translation

Straight - Meaning, that from the edge of the garment we measure in a straight [perpendicular] line, the three fingers. And similarly the measurement of the thumb knuckle, whether it's the length or the width (ie. whether it's the measurement of the length of the thumb from the knuckle to the end of the nail, or if it's the measurement of a thumb-width), as is see below at the end of Siman 10. And we don't measure the measurements at an angle because the angle lessens the measurement by around two-fifths [Beit Yosef].
