About These Units
About Faden [Switzerland]
The Swiss faden is a traditional unit of length equivalent to the klafter, representing the span of outstretched arms. Used throughout Switzerland for measuring construction materials, rope, depth, and land areas. The faden was particularly important in Alpine regions for measuring timber, stone, and other building materials until the adoption of the metric system.
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.
