I grew up with the metric system, so for me that is the more Intuitive option. I'm trying to learn imperial, but it's hard.

I'm used to everything being even, so all the fractions are clear, but when weighing something at a store and needing to write the lb. When there are 12 (I believe) lines in between, not 10, makes it really hard. It's not 4.5, unless it's supposed to be 4.05 cause later in oudl be written 4.11. Or, is it 4.5lb, or 4lb and 6 (whatever lower measurement is called, I don't even know)

But also, I am familiar with 20cm being the length between my thumb and little finger tips if I stretch out my hand, but no clue how to get a rough estimate using inches.

And if someone says something is 20 feet, I'll stare at them blankly 🤣 though if you say 10m, I might do the same, but at least I can calculate that pretty quickly 😅

We'll be teaching our kids both systems to they don't need to wonder like most of us 😎
