Units of Measure
The abbreviation for 'kilogram' is 'kg.'
The abbreviation for 'pound' is 'lb.' (plural 'lbs.')
This is Old English, and no one knows why it is 'lb.'
1 kilogram = 2.2 pounds
I weigh 154 lbs. or 70 kg.
This blog is mainly to explain a different English language expression every day. Sometimes I post other stuff. I also have a YouTube channel which is mostly about computer software: https://www.youtube.com/englishspacedog
