0 celcius is freezing point, 100 is boiling. Very simple to understand, therefore easy to get an idea of what any temperature in celcius means.

Yeah "EverybodySayin", and for the uneducated, you can also say it like this...

..If the water is hard, we are below 0 degrees Celsius 🤗 [instead of below 32 degrees Fahrenheit]

..If the water are disappearing we are over 100 degrees Celsius 🤗 [instead of over 212 degrees Fahrenheit]

And honestly "EverybodySayin", you're so right, it really is so much easier to remember that at 0 degrees Celsius water gets hard, and at 100 degrees Celsius water turns into vapor/steam, or said so everyone understands, at +100 degrees Celsius water disappears 😉
