Note: all time units are based on the Julian year, with one month being 1/12th of a Julian year, a year being one Julian year, a decade being 10 Julian years, a century being 100, and a millennium being 1000.
Note that all relevant units can also be written in plural form, for example `5 meters` instead of `5 meter` or `10 seconds` instead of `10 second`.
Surface and volume units can alternatively be expressed in terms of length units raised to a power, for example `100 in^2` instead of `100 sqin`.
