5 Les mesures de longueur
Le système métrique est de plus en plus utilisé en Grande-Bretagne et aux États-Unis pour les mesures de longueur. Mais les anciennes mesures ont encore cours, et sont quelquefois préférées, notamment pour les distances, exprimées en miles, et non en kilomètres. Les commerçants utilisent en général les deux systèmes.Équivalences1 inch = 2,54 cm1 foot = 12 inches = 30,48 cm1 yard = 3 feet = 91,44 cm1 furlong = 220 yards = 201,17 m1 mile = 1760 yards = 1,61 kmPour la prononciation des nombres, voir ⇒ Les nombres.dire direone millimetre 1 mm 0.04 in* inchesone centimetre 1 cm 0.39 inone metre 1 m 39.37 ins3.28 ft feet†1.09 yds yardsone kilometre 1 km 1094 yds0.62 ml miles* Le symbole de inch est ": 4 inches = 4".† Le symbole de foot et feet est ': 5 feet 4 inches = 5' 4".Pour l’écriture, noter:- on écrit -metre en anglais britannique, mais -meter en anglais américain;- pour le système métrique, les abréviations sont les mêmes en anglais qu’en français;- l’anglais utilise un point là où le français a une virgule.il y a 100 centimètres dans un mètre= there are 100 centimetres in one metreil y a douze pouces dans un pied= there are twelve inches in one footil y a trois pieds dans un yard= there are three feet in one yardLa distancequelle distance y a-t-il entre A et B?= what’s the distance from A to B? ou how far is it from A to B?à quelle distance de l’église se trouve l’école?= how far is the school from the church?il y a 2 km= it is 2 kilometresil y a environ 2 km= it is about 2 kilometresla distance est de 2 km= the distance is 2 kilometresil y a 2 km entre A et B= it is 2 kilometres from A to BA est à 2 km de B= A is 2 kilometres from B(Noter l’absence d’équivalent anglais de la préposition française à avant le chiffre dans le dernier exemple.)à peu près 2 km= about 2 kilometrespresque 3 km= almost 3 kilometresplus de 2 km= more than 2 kilometres ou over 2 kilometresmoins de 3 km= less than 3 kilometres ou under 3 kilometresA est plus loin de B que C de D= it is further from A to B than from C to D ou A is further away from B than C is from DC est plus près de B que A= C is nearer to B than A isA est plus près de B que de C= A is nearer to B than to CA est aussi loin que B= A is as far away as BA et B sont à la même distance= A and B are the same distance awayNoter l’ordre des mots dans l’adjectif composé anglais, et l’utilisation du trait d’union.

14 there
❢ There is generally translated by là after prepositions: near there = près de là etc and when emphasizing the location of an object/point etc visible to the speaker: put them there = mettez-les là. Remember that voilà is used to draw attention to a visible place/object/person: there's my watch = voilà ma montre, whereas il y a is used for generalizations: there's a village nearby = il y a un village tout près. there when unstressed with verbs such as aller and être is translated by y: we went there last year = nous y sommes allés l'année dernière, but not where emphasis is made: it was there that we went last year = c'est là que nous sommes allés l'année dernière. For examples of the above and further uses of there see the entry below.A pron ( as impersonal subject) il ; there seems ou appears to be il semble y avoir ; there is/are il y a ; there are many reasons il y a beaucoup de raisons ; there is some left il en reste ; once upon a time there was il était une fois ; there'll be a singsong later on va chanter plus tard ; there's no denying that personne ne peut nier que ; suddenly there appeared a fairy littér soudain est apparue une fée ; there arose cries from the audience littér des cris sont montés de la salle.B adv1 ( that place or point) là ; far from/near/two kilometres from there loin de/près de/à deux kilomètres de là ; up to there, down to there jusque là ; put it in there mettez-le là-dedans ; in there please ( ushering sb) par là s'il vous plaît ; we left there on Thursday nous sommes partis de là jeudi ;2 ( at or to that place) là ; stop there arrêtez-vous là ; sign there please veuillez signer là s'il vous plaît ; stand there mettez-vous là ; go over there va là-bas ; are you still there?
