2 Le poids
* Pour les mesures du système métrique, les abréviations sont les mêmes en anglais qu’en français. Mais attention à ton: voir ci-dessous.† Noter que l’anglais a un point là où le français a une virgule. Pour la prononciation des nombres, voir ⇒ Les nombres.‡ Noter que la pound anglaise, que nous appelons couramment livre, vaut en fait 454 grammes.§ Les stones ne sont pas utilisées aux États-Unis.¶ Il n’y a pas d’abréviation pour ton.|| La tonne anglaise et la tonne américaine ne correspondent pas au même poids. Attention, car les anglophones peuvent en outre utiliser le mot ton pour la tonne de 1000 kilos; pour éviter cette ambiguïté, on peut dire metric ton.Les équivalences suivantes peuvent être utiles:1 oz = 28,35 g1 lb = 16 ozs = 453,60 g1 st = 14 lbs = 6,35 kg1 cwt = 8 st (GB) = 112 lbs (GB) = 50,73 kg= 100 lbs (US) = 45,36 kg1 ton = 20 cwt (GB) = 1014,6 kg= 20 cwt (US) = 907,2 kgLe poids des chosescombien pèse le colis?= what does the parcel weigh? ou how much does the parcel weigh?quel est son poids?= how much does it weigh? ou how heavy is it? ou what is its weight?il pèse 5 kg= it weighs 5 kilos ou it is 5 kilos in weightle colis fait 5 kg= the parcel weighs 5 kilosil fait à peu près 5 kg= it is about 5 kilospresque 6 kg= almost 6 kilosplus de 5 kg= more than 5 kilosmoins de 6 kg= less than 6 kilosA est plus lourd que B= A is heavier than BA pèse plus lourd que B= A weighs more than BB est plus léger que A= B is lighter than AB est moins lourd que A= B is lighter than AA est aussi lourd que B= A is as heavy as BA fait le même poids que B= A is the same weight as BA pèse autant que B= A is the same weight as BA et B font le même poids= A and B are the same weightA et B pèsent le même poids= A and B are the same weightNoter:il pèse deux kilos de trop= it is 2 kilos overweightsix kilos de sucre= six kilos of sugarvendu au kilo= sold by the kiloNoter l’ordre des mots dans l’adjectif composé anglais, et l’utilisation du trait d’union.
