2 average: The "average (temperature)" describes the typical or usual temperature of a region or place. The average winter temperature in Finland is 4.8 degrees celsius, according to Jonas. Note that "average" can mean something "typical" or "usual", as in: He's of average height, or she is our average customer, or it can correspond to a specific number (also called the 'mean): The average of 9 and 1 is 5, or the average age of our clients is 33 years old.
