About Chinese Foot
The Chinese foot, known as 'chi' in Chinese, is a traditional unit of length that originated in ancient China over 3,000 years ago during the Shang dynasty. Originally based on the span of a human hand from thumb to forefinger, the chi has been adopted throughout East Asia. The modern Chinese foot varies by region: approximately 33.33 cm in mainland China, 37.15 cm in Hong Kong, and 30.30 cm in Taiwan.
About Mark Twain
The mark twain or twain is an old word for the number two, derived from the Anglo-Saxon twegen. The American author Samuel Clemens (1835-1910), who had been a riverboat pilot on the Mississippi in his youth, took his literary name from a traditional riverboat phrase "mark twain", meaning "exactly two" fathoms of water. This was the minimum depth needed for the boats to operate safely without running aground.
