Miles, Yards, Feet and Gallons
Japanese visitors to the U.S. will notice cultural differences as soon as
they leave the airport. Distances on roads are measured in miles. Shorter
distances are measured in yards and feet. On a hot summer day, you might
be shocked to see the temperature outside the car may be over 95°, but
don't worry. That's Fahrenheit, not Celsius! It's just 35°C. When drivers
stop for gas, they fill up their cars in gallons, not liters. Families shopping
at the supermarket may also buy a gallon of milk. The gallon is 3.785 liters
in the U.S., so milk cartons are much larger than in Japan.
