Definition of Temperature


The temperature is a measure of how hot or cold something is.


We use thermometers to measure the temperature.

In Australia, we measure temperatures using degrees Celsius, but your grandparents might talk about temperatures measured in degrees Fahrenheit.

The thermometer in the picture shows a temperature of about \(40{\;}^\circ C\), which is short for \(40\) degrees Celsius.
