German obsolete units of measurement en
The obsolete units of measurement of German-speaking countries consist mostly of a variety of units that are similar to those that were traditionally used in other countries and are still used in the United Kingdom and the United States. Some of these units are still used in everyday speech and even in stores and on street markets as shorthand for similar amounts in the metric system. For example, some customers ask for one pound of something when they want 500 grams. The metric system became compulsory on January 1, 1872, in Germany and on January 1, 1876, in Austria.
