metrify

(Canada, US) A metrication.

The reversal of metrification.

Metrification refers to the process of converting measurements, systems, or even written works into a metric or structured format. In North American usage it often describes the shift from imperial to metric measurement — the kind of thing governments wrestle with for decades. In a literary sense, metrification means reshaping prose or irregular verse into a regular metrical pattern. Either way, it implies imposing an organized, standardized framework onto something previously loose or inconsistent.
