Common Length Conversions Metric Length Conversions Unit Definition (dong [Vietnam]) The đồng (VND) is the standard unit of currency used in Vietnam. It has a symbol ₫. It is subdivided into 10 hào, which are divided into 10 xu. The hào and xu units of currency are so worthless that they are no longer issued. Unit Definition (caliber) The caliber is a unit used to express the bore diameter of a gun. Traditionally, the diameter is stated in inches, so that ".22 caliber" refers to a pistol having a bore of 0.22 inches (5.588 mm). So the caliber is actually equivalent to the inch. The usage of the term "caliber" is actually now in decline, because bore diameters of many guns are now stated in millimeters. "Caliber" is the American spelling; elsewhere the unit is often spelled "calibre."
