Hi Jesus
I'd personally say "I'm five foot five". ;)

Right! Thanks for your reply!
So, Is 'five foot five' the same as 1.65 metres?
Thanks once again! |

Yes it is, Jes?s. :D
To be honest, I'm not sure what I'd say in meters and centimeters because I've only ever spoken in English about my height in terms of feet and inches. :oops:

EDIT:
By the way, the "short way" to say your height in feet and inches would be:
"I'm five five." :lol: :D _________________ "Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." ~ Abraham Lincoln |

Can't it also mean I am five years and five months old?
