寸 (cùn) is a Chinese unit of measurement that is roughly equivalent to an inch. It is commonly used to measure length, such as the length of a person's arm or the width of a piece of fabric. It is also used to measure the size of objects, such as the diameter of a bowl or the circumference of a tree. It is not used to measure weight or volume. For example, to measure the weight of an object, the Chinese unit of measurement is 公斤 (gōngjīn).
