ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Libra (weight)

Libra is a weight measurement used by people a long time ago. It's kinda like how we use pounds or kilograms now to measure things like fruits, vegetables, and other things we want to weigh.

Think of libra like a big bag of candy. If you have one bag of candy, it might weigh one libra. But if you have two bags of candy, it might weigh two libras!

Nowadays, people use different measurements to weigh things and it might not make sense to use libra anymore. But it’s still a measure that people used for a long time, and it’s good to know what it means.
