A farmer uses a hl to measure grain.

Definition

Noun: - A metric unit of volume or capacity equal to 100 liters. It is a standard measurement in the metric system, used for quantifying liquids and dry goods.

Usage
  • The abbreviation "hl" stands for "hectoliter." It is primarily used in scientific, agricultural, and commercial contexts where large volumes are measured.
  • It functions as a singular noun (e.g., one hl) and a plural noun (e.g., ten hl).
Examples
  • The brewery's output last month was 500 hl of beer.
  • This silo has a capacity of 150 hl of grain.
  • Water consumption is often measured in cubic meters or hectoliters.
Advanced Usage
  • The unit is commonly used in industries like brewing, winemaking, and agriculture to measure production yields and storage capacities.
  • It is part of the International System of Units (SI), though the liter and cubic meter are more frequently used in general scientific contexts.
Variants and Related Words
  • Hectoliter (n): The full, unabbreviated form of "hl."
  • Liter (n): A metric unit of volume equal to one cubic decimeter. 1 hl = 100 liters.
  • Kiloliter (n): A metric unit of volume equal to 1,000 liters or 10 hectoliters.
Synonyms
  • Hectolitre (n): The British English spelling variant.
  • 100 liters (n): A descriptive equivalent.
Notes
  • "hl" is a standardized symbol, not an acronym, and does not use periods (e.g., "h.l." is incorrect).
  • While "hectoliter" is the correct term, the abbreviation "hl" is very common in technical writing and on labels.
