    Till everyone feels they’re falling down (twice)

    Just run outside in the sunshine
    And be ready for a good time
    Any corner, any step, by magic, I bet

    Who was Anders Celsius?

    Anders Celsius (27 November 1701 – 25 April 1744) was a Swedish astronomer. He was professor of astronomy.  In 1742 he proposed the Celsius temperature scale which takes his name. The scale was later reversed in 1745 by Carl Linnaeus.

    Degrees Celsius or  degrees centigrade????
     
    You might read 37°C as 37 degrees Celsius or 37 degrees centigrade.  Why are there two names for °C and what's the difference?

    Here's the answer:
    One reason for doing away with the word “centigrade,” was that it might be confused with one-hundredth of agrade , a unit of plane angle.


    Grados Celsius (°C)

    Unidad estándar para medir temperatura en el sistema métrico, que registra el punto de congelación del agua como 0° y el punto de ebullición como 100° en condiciones atmosféricas normales.

    ¿Qué es más correcto escribir  
    «se alcanzarán hoy los 37 grados celsius» o bien «se alcanzarán hoy los 37 grados centígrados» o simplemente «los 37 grados».

    Según las normas internacionales, ha de ser «37 grados Celsius» (pues Celsius es un nombre propio). En la lengua corriente es habitual «37 grados centígrados» y «37 grados»; aunque no deberían usarse en escritos técnicos, se pueden considerar aceptables en escritos generales.
