I'm from Canada, but I'm used to whatever strange mix we use here.
The experience is not the same for every Canadian (big country), but in my thick of the woods...
- I measure 6 foot and 1 inch.
- Anything construction related is in foot and inches.
- I buy a two litres of soft liquor at the store.
- And a gallon of milk.
- You drive a few kilometers, but you see something coming from a mile away.
- When it's cold during the winter, it's -30 degrees celcius.
- It's universally known that the human body is at around 37.5 degrees celcius, but if you're over 100 fahrenheit you might have a fever!
- But I put my oven at 350 fahrenheit.
- My sister just had her baby. A seven pounds healthy boy.
- My new refregirator was hard to move around, it weighted almost 250 kilograms.
- Don't speed when you drive, remember you're in a two tons machine!
I've got a solid understanding of what a
foot is because we also use that. But I've got no idea what a
yard is.
