agree  Wenjer Leuschel (X): 坪 is one of the remains of the Netherland colonial period in Taiwan. All the cartographical terms and measurements of that period are still used in Taiwan: 坪, 分, 甲, etc.

平 (平方米)


Explanation:
“平方米”是国际通行的公制,
“平”是“平方米”的意思,为了省事,“简写”成这样。

“坪”,本义:平坦之地,,泛指山区和丘陵地区局部的平地。

但它既不是一个国际通行的单位,又不是我国传统的制度。它是东瀛日本的面积单位名,等于一日亩的三十分之一,合3.3057平方米 。

  一坪 一平方英尺 一平方米 是完全不一样的单位

  1坪 = 3.305785 m2
  1平方英尺 = 0.09290304 m2
  
  香港用英尺
  台湾用坪
