Common Length Conversions Metric Length Conversions Unit Definition (tenthmeter) The metre, symbol: m, is the basic unit of distance (or of "length", in the parlance of the physical sciences) in the International System of Units. The internationally-accepted spelling of the unit in English is "metre", although the American English spelling meter is a common variant. However, both American and non-American forms of English agree that the spelling "meter" should be used as a suffix in the names of measuring devices such as chronometers and micrometers. Unit Definition (verge) The verge is an old name for the yard, taken from the Latin word virga for a twig or stick. In modern French, verge is the customary word for the English yard.
