"Convert to metric", in the sense of expressing a measurement in metric units 
instead of the other units it was taken in, is "mrefanva fi lo treci'e". But to 
convert one's operation to metric, or to metricate, how do you say that? Is it 
just "co'a pilno lo treci'e", or is there another way to say it? What about 
converting to a religion?
