Hur långt är ett snöre?
Faktum är att Wiki kan hjälpa till med detta. Jag har länge trott att svaret är "det beror på", men nu vet jag bättre:
The Greco-Roman schoenus, supposedly based on an Egyptian unit derived from a wound reed measuring rope, may also be given in translation as a "rope". According to Strabo, it varied in length between 30 to 120 stadia (roughly 5 to 20 km) depending on local custom.
The Byzantine equivalent, the schoinion or "little rope", varied between 60 to 72 Greek feet depending upon the location.
The Thai sen of 20 Thai fathoms or 40 m also means and is translated "rope".
The Somerset rope was a former English unit used in drainage and hedging. It was 20 feet (now precisely 6.096 m).

Dubbelt så långt som ett halvt snöre.
