A native system of weights and measures was used by Tatars until 1924, but became obsolete when the Soviet Union adopted the metric system. The Tatar system shares many units with the Russian system (e.g. ''sajın'' and ''disätinä''), which is close to the English (The Russian system existed since ancient Rus', but under Peter the Great, the Russian units were redefined relative to the English system.), therefore a ''duym'' is pretty much equal to an inch. This list includes their Tatar language names. == Length == * Duym (дюйм), thumb = 25.4 mm * Qarış (вершок) = 44.45 mm * Fut (foot) * * 1 Fut = 12 ''duym'' = 304.8 mm * Çirek, qarış or söyäm (пядь) * * 1 Çirek = 4 ''qarış'' = 177.8 mm * Arşın (аршин) * * 1 Arşın = 4 ''cirek'' = 16 ''qarış'' = 28 ''dúym'' = 711.2 mm * Sajın, qolaç or tayaq (сажень) * * 1 Sajın = 3 ''arşın'' = 7 ''fut'' = 2.133 m * Çaqrım (верста) * * 1 Çaqrım = 500 ''sajın'' = 1.0668 km * Färsäx or parasang * * 1 Färsäx = 6-7 ''çaqrım'' = 6.400-7.467 km * Mil (миля), geographical mile * * 1 Mil = 7 ''çaqrım'' = 7.467 km * Atnı tuqtawsız yurıyu, the distance a horse travels without stops * * 1 Atnı tuqtawsız yurıyu = 15–25 km * Cäyäwleneñ könlek yulı, a day of riding * * 1 Cäyäwleneñ könlek yulı = 35 ''çaqrım'' = 37.338 km * Atnıñ könlek yulı, the distance a horse travels in one day, equal to 40–50 km * Cäyäwleneñ aylıq yulı, a month of riding, equal to 1120.14 km * * 1 Cäyäwleneñ aylıq yulı = 1050 ''çaqrım'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Obsolete Tatar units of measurement」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
