grond (n.) (plural grond) - A unit of measurement for distance. A grond is roughly defined as the distance an average person travels, moving at a relaxed pace over flat ground, in one destra. destra (n.) (plural destra) - A unit of measurement for time. A destra is roughly defined as a tenth of a diurnal cycle. Thoughts. Imagine how our embracing of base10 is socialized so strongly, and yet so lightly.
