- ojm 9y agoYou get less inches than cm. Less miles than km. Not so free after all!
- duncan_bayne 9y agoI was going to reply "fewer inches!" but then I realised that inches are (at least in principle) not discrete; half an inch is a perfectly reasonable measurement. Anyone here know which of "less inches" or "fewer inches" is grammatically correct?
- skj 9y ago"fewer" is for things you can count. Less length, but fewer inches.
- dom0 9y ago> More is more better ... that's just simple science!
- norikki 9y agoIn the spirit of standardization, I think all systems of speaking besides American English should be made illegal in all countries. That way, no one will have to pay translators to unnecessarily switch back and forth between equivalent languages, or have to put up with any of those stupid British accents. You can't deny the economic advantages of this. Who cares about losing cultural heritage? That's just for obstructionists like those filthy Americans. /s
