I can visualize an acre really well.where I grew up, houses were standard on 1/4 acre blocks so it was just my house and my 3 neighbours houses.
Hectares though, these are the devils unit of area and Ill have no part in them!
I thought acre was English for the Spanish word "hectárea". I guess I was wrong. Anyways, my mind always goes blank when people use these units. I can only understand once I hear squared meters or kilometers.
Edit: dude, an hectare is just 10k squared meters. Chef's kiss. Meanwhile an acre is 4 neighboring houses from that Lemmy's user, or 5000 potatoes spread on a field.
A Hectare is just 100m X 100m. So about two football pitches next to each other.
(A metre is about the same as a yard).
Witch!
Burn her!
Is that a UK football pitch or an American football pitch?
Also -- fun fact -- football pitches (UK/European) vary in size depending on how "professional" they are
