For example,

60 seconds = 1 minute

60 minutes = 1 hour

24 hours = 1 day

7 day = 1 week

29-31 days = Month (approx.)

365/366 days = year

It’s like for the imperial measurement of distance, where 1 mile = 5280 feet…

Edit: just to clarify, I’m more or less keen towards any consistent, decimal-based measurement systems like base-10 or base-12.

    Here is my insane take:

    We should use some large multiple of ten of plank units for distance measurements,

    Then we can use a noticable on our scale time period in plank time units to measure time.

    That way when we can set easier standards for when we meet our extra terrestrial comrades.
