Square

English to Chinese Bus/Financial Real Estate
(real estate jargon) A unit of measurement of area, equal to a 10 foot by 10 foot square, ie. 100 square feet or roughly 9.3 square metres. Used in real estate for the size of a house or its rooms, though progressively being replaced by square metres in metric countries such as Australia.
2006: Just as the basic unit of real estate measurement across the world is the square ... — Macquarie Bank (Australia), press release Macquarie releases Real Estate Market Outlook 2006 - "The World Squared", 21 June 2006 [1]
2007: The house is very large and open and boasts 39 squares of living space plus over 13 squares of decking area on 3 sides and 17 squares of garage and workshop downstairs. — Your Estate advertisement for Grindelwald Tasmania

这里的“square”本身即是一个完整的面积单位,属房地产行业术语,有没有比较统一的译法?
Proposed translations (Chinese)
5 平方
4 平(100平方英尺)

目前选用的是“坪”,类似于台湾和日本的一个房地产面积单位,还是要感谢Chris和Jamie的答案。先等一段时间,看看各位译友有没有更好的答案。

百平方英尺

平方

这里指的是10平方英尺,只是更形象一点的表达方式,即:”10英尺成10英尺的平方面积“

2 meters by 2 meters square = 2 meters square

平(100平方英尺)

内地用平方表示单位建筑面积,默认是指平方米,不过这里的平方是指100平方英尺,直接译成平方可能会引起误解,最好在首次出现的时候解释一下,就像处理一个术语一样。
房地产行业好像也没有专门为这个词规定一个统一的译法。
供参考。
