  • 2 Temperature

    Temperatures in French are written as in the tables below. Note the space in French between the figure and the degree sign and letter indicating the scale. When the scale letter is omitted, temperatures are written thus: 20° ; 98,4° etc. (French has a comma, where English has a decimal point).
    Note also that there is no capital on centigrade in French ; capital C is however used as the abbreviation for Celsius and centigrade as in 60 °C.
