Advanced Description
This is is an experimental feature. Please report any issues.Grad is a German noun that translates to 'degree' in English. It is commonly used to refer to a unit of measurement for angles or temperature.
In the context of angles, Grad is often used as an alternative to degrees. One Grad is equal to 1/100th of a right angle, which means there are 400 Grads in a full circle. This measurement system is primarily used in some scientific and engineering fields.
When it comes to temperature, Grad is sometimes used in Germany and other German-speaking countries as an informal way to express Celsius. For example, instead of saying '20 degrees Celsius', one might say '20 Grad'. However, this usage is less common and mostly limited to colloquial speech.
