1. Thus, according to the definition, the measurement of a volume of liquid by means of a material measure of capacity is just as much a measurement by comparison as is the measurement of a pressure by an elastic gauge in which pressure is converted into deformation of an elastic element. 2. Sometimes, however, it is considered that the term "comparison method" should only be used in the case where the comparison is made between two quantities of the same nature. 1, record 1, English, - comparison%20method%20of%20measurement

1. Un mesurage par comparaison est donc, d'après la définition, aussi bien le mesurage du volume d'un liquide au moyen d'une mesure matérialisée de capacité que le mesurage d'une pression au moyen d'un manomètre à ressort dans lequel la pression se transforme en une déformation d'un élément élastique. 2. Cependant, on considère parfois que c'est seulement dans le cas où la comparaison s'effectue entre deux grandeurs de même nature que la méthode est dite «par comparaison». 2, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20de%20mesure%20par%20comparaison
