 Standard T'vaqi units of time are based on subdivisions of the average length of the day. The length of one day is referred to as a ''pav''. Ten ''shavi'' (2h 24m) make up each day, and ten ''hoshavi'' (14m 24s) make up each shav. The length of a hoshav can be further broken down into ten ''sqovi'' (1m 26.4s), which are finally broken down into ten ''hosqovi'' (or ''breaths''), the shortest common unit of time. The length of a hosqov is approximately 8.64 seconds.
-One week in T'vaqi passes every ten days. Historically, the number of weeks since the Second Unification of T'vaqi was the most common way of expressing time over a long period (for example, the date 3-9 53 PC could be represented by the number 10677.3). However, the ''q'so'ho'' (meaning ''cycle''), a length of time lasting 36 weeks, was also introduced to the UUS for the purposes of defining the term lengths of [[List of Grand Magisters|Grand Magisters]]. The length of 36 weeks (360 days) was chosen as 36 is the smallest product of two different perfect squares, and happened to align with yearly seasons. The first ''q'so'ho'' began on 1-2 244 TT, the date of the Second Unification. Conveniently, this made converting to the Haracalnde very easy, since the Haracalnde year is the exact same length as a ''q'so'ho''.

	The '''Unilateral Unit System''' ('''UUS''') is a standardized set of units of measure utilized in [[T'vaqi]] and [[Hapšâw]]. The UUS was officially established shortly following the [[Second Unification of T'vaqi]] in [[244 TT]]. Initially conceptualized by a group of mathematicians, the UUS was created to reduce confusion regarding exact distances and measurements, and was built to accommodate the existing [[T'vaqi numerals\|T'vaqi numeral system]]. Its establishment was the last action of the Unification Committee before its dissolution. Since its official incorporation into T'vaqi society, the Bureau of Measurement, a government-funded organization ran by several Magisters, has overseen the implementation of UUS units wherever necessary. In [[53 PC]], conversion formulae for inter-island units of measure were developed by the Bureau of Measurement for trade purposes.
