English (or imperial) units are things like:- Pint/gallon for volume Inch/foot for length Ounce/pound for weight (there are more) Metric units are:- litre for volume metre for length kilogram for weight
Metric System- A system of measuring length, volume, and weight based in groups of 10 Some Metric Units: Millimeter, Centimeter, Decimeter, Meter, Decameter, Hectometer, Kilometer
The English system is a system of units of measurement commonly used in the United States, which includes units such as inches, feet, pounds, and gallons. It is distinct from the metric system used in most other countries.
