Loosely, a unit system defining all magnitudes of units in multiples of ten. The standard for the MetricSystem is known as __SI__, an abbreviation for [Système International d'unités|http://www.bipm.fr/enus/3_SI/si.html]. [A quick breakdown of the units|http://www.chemie.fu-berlin.de/chemistry/general/si_en.html] may be informative.
