Fahrenheit scale

Japanese: 華氏温度目盛(英語表記)Fahrenheit scale
Fahrenheit scale
Fahrenheit temperature scale*. The freezing point is 32°F, and the boiling point is 212°F. Originally, it is said that the origin of this temperature scale was the temperature of a refrigerant made from a mixture of ice and salt, and 100°F was his own body temperature, but recent reports suggest that it actually used the minimum and maximum temperatures in Berlin in 1724, the year he established the scale. The character "Fahrenheit" is used because Fahrenheit's phonetic translation is "Hua-lin-hai," so the first character is used (therefore, the use of the character "Ka-shi," which is favored by some publishers, is meaningless).

ファーレンハイト温度目盛*.氷点を32°F,沸点を212°Fとする.もともとこの温度目盛りの原点は,氷と塩の混合でつくる寒剤の温度,100°Fは彼自身の体温だといわれているが,最近の報告によると,彼が制定した1724年におけるベルリンの最低気温と最高気温を利用したのだということである.「華氏」という字が使われるのは,ファーレンハイトの華音訳が「華倫海(Hua‐lin‐hai)」なので,最初の一字をとっているからである(したがって,一部の出版社などが愛用している「カ氏」という文字遣いは無意味である).
