Origin:
The term "centigrade" was first proposed in 1742 by Swedish astronomer Anders Celsius. His original scale, known as the Celsius scale, had its zero point at the boiling point of water and its 100th degree at the freezing point of water. In 1884, the Celsius scale was inverted, with its zero point set at the freezing point of water and its 100th degree at the boiling point of water.
