Unit Definition (are)
The are is a unit of area equal to 100 square meters. The word is pronounced the same as "air". Being the area of a square 10 meters on each side, the are is a little large for measuring areas indoors and a little small for measuring areas outdoors. As a result, the are is not used as often as its multiple, the hectare (ha). One are is approximately 1076.3910 square feet, 119.5990 square yards, or 0.02471 acre.

Unit Definition (nook)
The nook is a traditional unit of land area in northern England. Originally the nook was 1/2 virgate; a virgate, often called a yardland in the north, was about 30 acres in southern England but tended to be closer to 40 acres in the north. A nook of land thus came to be 20 acres or about 8.094 hectares.
