When I first moved to the US from Sweden, some things changed that I still today have trouble with, and I am talking about measurements. So let's look at some numbers, not considering the measurements. To give you a few examples, my height went from 157 to 5.1. My weight went from 63 to 139. My shoe sizes changed from 36 to 5. And my clothes went from 38 to 12.
Of course, I was the same size as before, but the measurements had changed. I went from 157 centimeters to 5.1 feet. From 63 kilograms to 139 pounds, I don't know the reason for the shoes and the clothes, but today I am going to talk about the differences between the US imperial and metric systems.
I will also look at why the US still is one of only three countries in the world that are not metric and why I think we need to change.
