Latin term or phrase: ideft
Context:

[...] ideft, meditatur malum. In eandem quoque fententiam vertit Chald [...]

It is a historical document so it is very fragile and a bit difficult to see.

Thank you!

that is
Explanation:
ideft is a bad scan/misunderstanding of id est. One finds the long s which looks like an f, in a lot of older texts. In this case, the source term is actually two words, id est which means "it is" or "that is"
