Nepalese customary units of measurement
In Nepal different units for measurement of land are used. Ropani-Ana-Paisa-Dam system is used in hilly reasons while in Southern parts i.e. Terai region Bhigha-Kattha-Dhur system is being used.
The frequent conversion between these units and also to the SI unit is very crucial as we come across this situation often in our daily life.
For Land Area
1 Bigha (рдмрд┐рдШрд╛) = 20 Kattha (рдХрд реНрд рд╛)
1 Bigha (рдмрд┐рдШрд╛) = 6772.63 m┬▓
1 Bigha (рдмрд┐рдШрд╛) = 72900 sq.ft.
1 Bigha (рдмрд┐рдШрд╛) = 13.31 Ropani
1 Kattha (рдХрд реНрд рд╛) = 20 Dhur (рдзреБрд░)
1 Kattha (рдХрд реНрд рд╛) = 338.63 m┬▓
1 Kattha (рдХрд реНрд рд╛) = 3645 sq.ft.
1 Dhur (рдзреБрд░) = 16.93 m┬▓
1 Dhur (рдзреБрд░) = 182.25 sq.ft.
1 Ropani (рд░реЛрдкрдиреА)= 16 aana (рдЖрдирд╛)
1 Ropani (рд░реЛрдкрдиреА)= 64 Paisa (рдкреИрд╕рд╛)
1 Ropani (рд░реЛрдкрдиреА)= 508.72 m┬▓
1 Ropani (рд░реЛрдкрдиреА)= 5476 sq.ft.
1 Ropani (рд░реЛрдкрдиреА)= 256 Daam (рджрд╛рдо)
1 Ropani = 4 Matomuri
1 Khetmuri = 25 Ropani
1 Aana (рдЖрдирд╛)= 4 Paisa (рдкреИрд╕рд╛)
1 Aana (рдЖрдирд╛)= 31.80 m┬▓
1 Aana (рдЖрдирд╛) = 342.25 sq. ft.
1 Aana (рдЖрдирд╛) = 16 Daam (рджрд╛рдо)
1 Paisa (рдкреИрд╕рд╛) = 4 Daam (рджрд╛рдо)
1 Paisa (рдкреИрд╕рд╛) = 7.95 m┬▓
1 Paisa (рдкреИрд╕рд╛) = 85.56 sq. ft.
1 Daam (рджрд╛рдо) = 1.99 m┬▓
1 Daam (рджрд╛рдо) = 21.39 sq. ft.
1 Haath = 1.5 ft.
For Distance
1 angul = approx. 0.75 inch
4 angul = 1 dharnugrah (bow grip) = 3 in
8 angul = 1 dhanurmushti (fist with thumb raised) = 6 in
12 angul = 1 vitastaa (span) = 9 in
2 vittaa (cubit) = 18 in
4 haath = 1 dand or dhanush (bow) = 6 ft
2000 dand = 1 kos or Gorut = 4000 yards or 2.25 miles
4 kosh = 1 yojan = 9 miles = 14.48 km
