It has become common, to post the phrase “is it loss?” under almost everything that reminds of the characteristic pattern.

Ah ok. Now I understand.

Is it used also for communication? I only know it’s being used for transcription of official documents like passports or addresses.

Isn’t Pinyin a romanisation method, i.e. writing Chinese using the Latin alphabet instead of Chinese glyphs?

I think it wasn’t the point of OP that “meter” better matches the French pronunciation, but it does better match the (American and British?) English pronouciation than “metre” does.

Oils are often considered as fats, triglycerides, that are liquid at room temperature. Thus, any triglycerides that aren’t, aren’t oils.
Glycerin itself would also be safe to put onto skin as well.

The word Zäpfchen itself is the diminutive of Zapfen, a stud, peg or pin. E.g. the fruits of needle trees are also called Zapfen, Tannen-, Fichten- or Kiefernzapfen. So Gaumenzäpfchen is a small stud dangling down from the palate.

Probably: Kegel exercise

That’s really odd.

Interesting, what do you see then?

Yes, as US uses an voltage of 120 V, the current drawn by a load P is approximately double the current drawn by the same load P in EU with 230 V. Thus, the wires used in Europe only need approximately half the cross section compared to US. However, the insulation of the wires needs to be of higher standard.

That’s exactly what I wrote. mm^2 should be rendered to square millimeters (mm^2 ) by the browser / app.
In my understanding, ‘cross section’ always referrs to an area. The other property would be the diameter which is measured in units of length.

16 AWG – 1.3 mm^2
14 AWG – 2 mm^2
12 AWG – 3.3 mm^2
10 AWG – 5.2 mm^2

For us from the civilised part of the world ;-)

However, as in Europe we have 230 V system, approximately half the cross section, as stated in the table above, is sufficient.

Edit: This is how the above text should be displayed:

The cable specification is usually written onto or molded into the outer insulation, at least in Europe / EU.

Yes, that exists as well.

Looking at the origin:
ambi, Greek: both;
anti, Greek: against, opposed;
dexter, Latin: right, skilful, clever;
sinister, Latin: left, wrong, evil;

So sinister is already anti-dexter, the ambi just emphasises that this not-skilfulness applies to both hands. In German, calling somebody having “two left hands” means that they aren’t skilful at all concerning handcrafting.

This practice was not exclusively Soviet. It happened in the rest of Europe too, even long before the Soviet Union, pupils were tought to use their fine hand, i.e. their right, for writing, while their left was bound to their chair.
However, as being left handed isn’t exclusively a matter training, this practice causes drawbacks in other fields.
