The term "inch" originates from the Latin word "uncia," meaning one-twelfth. It was used in ancient Rome as a unit of measurement. Over time, the inch has evolved to be standardized as 1/12 of a foot in the Imperial system and 1/36 of a yard in the US customary system. The metric system, on the other hand, uses the centimeter as its equivalent measurement.
