Happy Easter to you too.

To answer your question, I should first mention that I hardly ever talk about my height in meters – I talk about my height in feet and inches. If I wanted to say that I’m 1.70 meters tall, I’d probably say it this way:

  • I’m a meter seventy.

The way people would usually say that in the US is this:

  • I’m five foot seven. :wink:
