The base unit of length is the thước (chữ Nôm: 𡱩; lit. "ruler") or xích (chữ Hán: 尺). Some of the traditional unit names have been repurposed for metric units, such as thước for the metre, while other traditional names remain in translations of imperial units, such as dặm Anh (English "dặm") for the mile.
