Metric or English System?
In this discussion, you will give your opinion about which system of measurements you prefer. In the United States, the English system is used (units of length are inches, feet, yards, miles; units of mass are ounces and pounds; units of volume are quarts, pints, gallons; units of temperature are degrees Fahrenheit). In the rest of the world, the Metric system is used (units of length are centimeters, meters, kilometers; units of mass are grams and kilograms; units of volume are milliliters and liters; units of temperature are degrees Celsius).You should first state either “English” or “Metric” to say which you prefer. And next add 1-2 sentences to explain why.
