==Volume==
As in many ancient systems of measurement, the Ausonian distinguishes between dry and liquid measurements of capacity. Note that the ''quartier'' appears in both lists with vastly differing values.

===Dry measures===
==Weight/mass==
Two systems of weight are in use in Ausonia, an ordinary one in common use, and an {{wp|apothecaries' system}}.
===General System===
Traditionally, the Ausonian pound (''livre'') was defined as the mass of exactly ​{{frac|1|70}} of a Ausonian cubic foot of water. In the 18th century, these were redefined around the ...
