Mile

What is Mile?


1.

Ancient unit of length, originally invented by the Romans who defined it as 1000 paces of a Roman Legion. The word mile is Latin for 1000. Now mostly replaced in usaged around the world by the kilometre. The Roman mile was approx 1.48 km in length, the modern mile is 1.609344 km in length. Still used on British roads and most US roads for distances and for speed limits in miles per hour. Most countries have long since abandoned this archaic measurement. Still used in vernacular speech for exaggeration.

That last attempt was miles better.

1 mile is about 1600 metres.

See length, roman, 1000, latin, ancient
