Fahrenheit is the temperature scale where water freezes at thirty-two. Ninety degrees Fahrenheit, in Fahrenheit, convert to Fahrenheit.
The United States is almost alone in still using it daily. The two scales cross at minus forty, which is the same temperature in both. Body temperature is ninety-eight point six, which is a suspiciously precise conversion of thirty-seven.
