metric unit of mass

A small unit for weight in the metric system, equal to one thousandth of a kilogram.

نمط الاستخدام: [number] grams of [uncountable noun]
غلطة شائعة:
Learners sometimes confuse 'gram' with 'gramme' or 'g'. In modern international English, 'gram' and the abbreviation 'g' are most common; 'gramme' is mainly a British historical spelling. Also, do not say 'gram of sugars' for a total amount on labels; use 'grams of sugar'.
مرادفات
g (The standard written abbreviation used especially in scientific texts and on packaging.)
أضداد
kilogram (A related unit that is one thousand times larger, sometimes contrasted with grams when talking about small versus large masses.)

نمط الاستخدام: [someone] cooks gram with [ingredient]

مرادفات
chickpea (The most common specific type of gram in English; 'gram' can also refer more broadly to several related pulses in South Asian English.)
أضداد
meat (Not a true antonym, but often contrasted with gram as an animal versus plant source of protein.)

telegram (old short form)

An old short word for a telegram, a written message people sent long ago by telegraph.

نمط الاستخدام: [someone] sends a gram to [someone]
غلطة شائعة:

مرادفات
telegram (The full standard word; 'gram' was a clipped informal form and is now rare and dated.)
أضداد
phone call (A common modern way to send a spoken message instantly, contrasting with the older, written telegraph gram.)
