It can be used to measure internal as well as external dimensions, and depths of features like steps and blind holes, in small components.
Nowadays many machinists etc use digital calipers - which are NOT vernier! - that have dual inch/metric units and often dual decimal/vulgar-fraction readings on the inch settings.
A vernier caliper.
A vernier caliper is a precision measuring instrument used to measure dimensions such as length, depth, and internal/external diameters with high accuracy. It features a main scale and a sliding vernier scale, allowing for measurements to be taken with a resolution typically of 0.01 mm or 0.02 mm. The vernier caliper can measure both metric and imperial units, making it versatile for various applications in engineering and manufacturing.

Former i.e. Vernier Caliper
The zero reading of a vernier caliper is when the jaws are closed and the main scale '0' mark aligns perfectly with the zero mark on the vernier scale. This is the reference point for taking measurements with the vernier caliper.
How much error is allowed in a digital vernier
Vernier Caliper are made with different materials even plastic vernier calipers are also available in market however generally stainless steel is used in making of vernier calipers
No unit for vernier scale coincidence. But as we multiply it by least count which has unit then we get vernier scale reading with the same unit. Of course main scale reading and vernier scale reading would have the same unit

A Vernier caliper is quite accurate and idiot proof. Part of its accuracy lies in its general ease of use.
A caliper is more accurate.
where on the vernier caliper would you read to obtain the vernier scale reading
