A means of estimation made according to a rough and ready practical rule, not based on science or exact measurement. The ‘rule of thumb’ has been said to derive from the belief that English law allowed a man to beat his wife with a stick so long as it is was no thicker than his thumb. In 1782, Judge Sir Francis Buller is reported as having made this legal ruling.
Wow, this post is a little something that you don’t see routinely. It is a good thing that I encountered this posting thanks to my good friend who showed it to me. It’s very uncommon for a writer to spend many persistence imparting the reports that you delivered. It is quite obvious that you put many time and energy into this so I praise you!
It basically means an essential rule.
