Pound in most Romance languages mean “Libra”, so, I believe however created this abbreviation had the latin word in mind... Or he just wanted people to get even more confused with this nonsense system By; metric system gang
It comes from the latin libra pondo. The weird part is that English kept both parts of the word, but only abbreviated the libra part, while only using pondo (pound) while speaking normally
For those of you who were curious what "Libra" means in Latin, it means "balance." That explains why the word was used for the abbreviation of pounds, and it also explains the zodiac sign Libra ♎️

"ou can se the flags of castille, aragon, austria, two sicilies, brabant, flanders, franco comite, toscany, milán" exactly, because Two-Sicilly was a pretty artificial creation agreed upon during the Vienna Congress to divide the parts of Italy that had been conquered and centralized by Napoleon or sized from the spanish crown. When the Congress tried to make order of all of that, the french managed to get that kingdom formed with an ofshoot of the spanish Bourbon family formerly king of Sicilly and Naples (it's after the Congress and the restauration of the kingdom that the coat of arms got that fat, though I might be wrong on that and it might have been like this from the beginning in the mid 1700s, not sure). Hence the arms of Castille, Aragon and even Portugal being on there. But most importantly : hence the arms of Anjou being right in the middle of it.

(6:30) Left-handedness is a great example to use for LGBT. First it was considered wrong to be left-hand and people were punished for it, so people were hiding that they were left-handed, since it was wrong. But since it was accepted to be left-handed, the percentage of left-handed people grew over the year, not because people were converted over to be left-handed, but since people stopped hiding and came out as left-handed. But this number has stagnated at 12 % many years back, since that's the actual percentage of left-handed people. This is the same as LGBT. Since it has been morally and legally wrong to be LGBT (and still is in several countries), people are forced to hide it. But since it's acceptable now in several countries, people are therefore coming out as LGBT. This makes the percentage of LGBT increase over the years and is still increasing. This does not mean people are converting over to LGBT, but people just stop hiding. We'll eventually see the number stagnate in some countries, and that will be the actual percentage of LGBT.
the tragically funny thing about that John Wayne Ghenghis Khan movie was they filmed it in New Mexico down wind of the nuclear test sites. The entire area was contaminated by radioactive fallout and they brought contaminated dirt and rocks back to the studio with them which caused several extras and crew members to die from cancer years later.

Lb is an abbreviation of the Latin word libra. The primary meaning of libra was balance or scales (as in the astrological sign), but it also stood for the ancient Roman unit of measure libra pondo, meaning “a pound by weight.” We got the word “pound” in English from the pondo part of the libra pondo but our abbreviation comes from the libra. The libra is also why the symbol for the British pound is £-an L with a line through it. The Italian lira also used that symbol (with two lines through it), the word “lira” itself being a shortened version of libra.
When I was at school they used to make me “eat” right handed, I would get kept in all lunch if I had my knife and fork the “left” way! And although they let me write left handed, they made me do it with a fountain pen so my hand would smudge my work, so then I had to write with my hand under the line so I didn’t smear it, which made my handwriting look worse, meaning they kept me in at lunch to re-write it all neater!

Best part is that it's been around 3 months since the air quality has been better than "hazardous".
As many people have already pointed out, lb stands for "libra", which means "balance" or "scale" in Latin. As in the scales to measure weight. A lot of English abbreviations are actually Latin! I never understood why the abbreviation for "that means"/"that is" is "i.e." until I found out that it stands for "id est" ("that is" in Latin)! And "e.g." stands for "exempli gratia" ("for example" in Latin).
Actually, my grandfather was left handed, went to school, the teachers thought it was a sign of the devil, and he was forced to use it right had for everything.
Lb is an abbreviation of the Latin word libra. The primary meaning of libra was balance or scales (as in the astrological sign), but it also stood for the ancient Roman unit of measure libra pondo, meaning “a pound by weight.”
The form lb is actually an abbreviation of the Latin word libra, which could mean a pound, itself a shortened form of the full expression, libra pondo, “pound weight”. The second word of this phrase, by the way, is the origin of the English pound.

I just saw the movie 1917. Won’t spoil anything, all I’ll say is that it’s quite different from your normal war movie. Much less fighting and much more running. Doesn’t make it bad (makes it great), just different.
Pounds and "lbs" both come from the roman language, where they said "libra poundo". The lbs is probably used because in french, italian and spanish the word used comes from the libra part, hence the abbreviation. Pounds is "livre", "libbra" and "libra" in theses 3 languages respectively.
Left handed people was seen is being evil because Left in Latin is sinister. That is why they thought left handed people were evil. Also that is why the Green Lantern villain Sinestro wears his ring on his left hand. Dexterous comes from the Latin word dexter which means right. So ambidextrous means two right hands basically.

Most of the country is also still in drought and people arent allowed to wash cars, hose gardens or do more than (I think) 6 loads of washing a week. Best part is that it's been around 3 months since the air quality has been better than "hazardous".

As many people have already pointed out, lb stands for "libra", which means "balance" or "scale" in Latin. As in the scales to measure weight.
A lot of English abbreviations are actually Latin! I never understood why the abbreviation for "that means"/"that is" is "i.e." until I found out that it stands for "id est" ("that is" in Latin)! And "e.g." stands for "exempli gratia" ("for example" in Latin).
I've seen "1917" and it was absolutely phenomenal.

Actually, my grandfather was left handed, went to school, the teachers thought it was a sign of the devil, and he was forced to use it right had for everything.
Drew’s content has been getting more and more interesting lately.

Lb is an abbreviation of the Latin word libra. The primary meaning of libra was balance or scales (as in the astrological sign), but it also stood for the ancient Roman unit of measure libra pondo, meaning “a pound by weight.”
6:00 the flooding in australia is a big deal because a lot of the ash contaminates river water now
0:32 that's the kingdom of the two sicilies, i think.
Australia floods are like when you click the rain button and it’s lagging so you press it 20 times
Btw it's not just coat arms it's two sicilies flag.
Zambia and Botswana do have a border around 200 metres long
"Where is New Zealand"
Jokes on you, I live in New Zealand.
The form lb is actually an abbreviation of the Latin word libra, which could mean a pound, itself a shortened form of the full expression, libra pondo, “pound weight”. The second word of this phrase, by the way, is the origin of the English pound.

If that dude was scared of that hamburguer pizza, then he would have a stroke if he ever tried to eat pizza in Brazil
We have two things in common
1) we are left handed
2) we write like 3 year olds
For those wondering, lbs is short for pounds because of the Latin phrase libra pondo; meaning pound weight.
The second one was the flag of the Kingdom of Two Scillies, a union of Sicily and Naples.
I just saw the movie 1917. Won’t spoil anything, all I’ll say is that it’s quite different from your normal war movie. Much less fighting and much more running. Doesn’t make it bad (makes it great), just different.
I asked my social studies teacher if anybody expected the Spanish Inquisition.
Drew is slowly progressing to a pewdiepie-like channel 😁
The last meme you reviewed is similar to my school report about the Mongol invasion of Japan
I'd love Drew Movie Reviews.
Pounds and "lbs" both come from the roman language, where they said "libra poundo".
The lbs is probably used because in french, italian and spanish the word used comes from the libra part, hence the abbreviation.
Pounds is "livre", "libbra" and "libra" in theses 3 languages respectively.

What is your point
Left handed people was seen is being evil because Left in Latin is sinister.
That is why they thought left handed people were evil. Also that is why the Green Lantern villain Sinestro wears his ring on his left hand.
Dexterous comes from the Latin word dexter which means right.
So ambidextrous means two right hands basically.
