peer agreement (net): +2dry measure by weight Explanation: as distinguished from dry measure by volume. Normally, Ken Cox would be absolutely spot on but I would think that, having entered the word "gewogen", your text is intending to make the distinction absolutely clear that it is a measure of weight and not of volume. Hope this helps. |

| Reference Reference information: 'gewogen' is perhaps redundant here -- see e.g. Dutch: mg/kg ds? - WordReference Forums It stands for "droge stof", the English term is "dry weight", so "mg/kg ds" as a whole reads "milligram per kilogram droge stof". ... forum.wordreference.com/showthread.php?t=369264 |
