Common Weight Conversions Metric Weight Conversions Unit Definition (tahil [China]) The tahil is a traditional unit of weight used throughout eastern Asia. During the colonial period, the tahil was more or less standardized throughout the region at 4/3 ounce avoirdupois (1/16 catty, 1/12 pound, or about 37.8 grams). In Japan, however, the tahil was identified with a slightly smaller traditional unit and is considered equal to 1.323 ounces (37.51 grams). The tahil is usually considered equal to the Chinese liang. Unit Definition (tical [Asia]) The tical is a traditional unit of weight in southeast Asia, originating as the weight of a coin of the same name. In Myanmar (Burma), where the unit is still in use for measuring the weights of precious metals and drugs, the tical is equivalent to 16.4 grams.
