Thermometer for Temperature

by angelku's cute(illah)

A thermometer is a device used to measure the temperature of a certain area. It came from the greek word ?????? which means warm, and meter which means to measure. It is usually measured in degree celcius or degrees fahrenheit. The higher the reading, the warmer the temperature is.

Barry's Response - The Greek word you're looking for, according to Wikipedia, is θερμός (thermo). Thanks for your contribution, AC(i).
