tall and weigh

[Ashiuhto]

Which of the following sentences is better?

1. I’m 183 cm tall and weigh 80kg.
2. I’m 183 cm tall and 80 kg weight.

You didn't believe me when I corrected it in your essay?

Only the first.
"My height it 183 cm and my weight is 80 kg" is okay.
You don't say "I'm 80 kg weight."
You say "I weigh 80 kg."

I say, "I am 1m 83 tall".

I was just confused by #2 which I wrote in my essay. But my instructor didn't correct the error. Our expression is somewhat interfered with Chinese thinking.

2. I’m 183 cm tall and 80 kg weight.

"I'm 183cm in height and 80kg in weight" is possible.
"I'm 183cm tall and 80kg in weight" is also possible.

I have put two suggestions above which use the word "weight". My natural statement would be "I'm five foot five and weigh ten stone" but then I'm British and I still use imperial measurements. I believe that in metric, I would say "I'm one metre sixty-five [tall] and [weigh] fifty kilos"

[Barb_D]

Your instructor just missed it, perhaps.

Is this possible as well "I'm 80 kg" ?
Sorry, I know this thread belongs to Ashiuhto. I just wanted to know if this alternative is also possible?
Thanks

I think so, yes. In imperial weight, I would say "I'm ten stone four" without saying "pounds" or "in weight".

When discussing athletes, for example, it is common to simply hear "He's 6-4, 240." Meaning 6 foot 4 inches and 240 pounds.

What does it mean by the word stone in the sentence "I'm five foot five and weigh ten stone" ?
