MILES:
0:00 / 0:00
MILE (odometer version):
0:00 / 0:00
Miles = M-I-L-E
Example: "100 miles" = "100 M-I-L-E" or "100 M-I-L-E-S."
Note: While we almost never see "inches" spelled with the "es," we do often see
the "s" used with "miles."
Note: I've seen a number of people (mostly young) use the sign "ODOMETER"
(right index finger circling left index finger) to mean "miles."
Related concepts:
Inches = I-N-C-H
Example: "15 inches" = "15 I-N-C-H" (We drop the "es." The number 15 causes the
"INCH" to be plural without adding the "es."
Gallon = GAL
Example: "12 gallons" = "12 G-A-L"
