målegröya
Målegröya is a neologism that appears in a small number of Scandinavian-language texts and in speculative writing to refer to ideas surrounding measurement and data representation. It is not a term recognized in standard metrology, statistics, or dictionaries, and there is no single accepted definition. In general use, målegröya is presented as either a hypothetical measurement framework that aims to unify heterogeneous quantities on a common scale, or as a fictional instrument or protocol for calibrating sensors and ensuring comparability across systems.
Etymology: the word combines måle, the Swedish verb meaning to measure, with a constructed suffix or element
Usage: because it lacks formal definition, writers employ målegröya as a thought experiment about how to compare
