RE: How Can an American Get a Feel for Metric // Ask Me Japan
Nope. 1 lb = .45 kg, making a kilo roughly half a pound. haha translation is just too much work. That's why I went again and forced myself to learn metric. More upfront cost, I suppose, but easier in the long run.
I think I get it now, it's the way you worded it made me think you're saying that 1 kilo would be about half a pound (~200 g haha) but I see that you didn't mean that. This is actually how I understand pounds too, but I say 1 pound is half a kilo :D
