What is the full form unit pounds?

Answer 1

The word "pound" comes from the Latin word pendere, meaning "to weigh." The Latin word libra means "scales, balances" and it also describes a Roman unit of mass similar to a pound. This is the origin of the abbreviation "lb" or "℔" for the pound. The plural form of "lb" is the same. Though it is frequently written with an "s" at the end (lbs), this is often considered grammatically incorrect.
