Basic quantity for length is meter (m), mass is kilogram (kg), time is second(s), volume is cubic meters (m3) or liters (L), thermodynamic temperature is Celsius (C) in day-to-day life or Kelvin (K) for scientific results. These are all effected by its preceeding value such as k for kilo would turn the length m (about 3 1/3 feet) into 1 km which is 1000m (or about 2/3 a US mile).
There is an excellent website at http://physics.nist.gov/cuu/Units/units.html which has many other examples and how to interpret them.
Someone else will have to help with their "english" equivalent as it is odd, because England is primarily metric (SI) now. However, as there is often a missuse of this word by people living in the USA, I can assume you meant U.S. Costomary Units.
The amounts are not identical to those of the "imperial" (read British) system, on everything from a ton (2252 lbs in England, and exactly 2000lbs in USA) to a gallon.
Anyway, the units are inch-foot-yard for length, ounce-pound for weight, seconds for time, fluid ounce-pint-quart-gallon for volume, and Fahrenheit (F) for temperature.
