task wording

The term   hourglass   is a device used to measure one hour.

The generic term for such a device is a   sandglass,   which can measure specific times   (set/defined during manufacture);   usually filled with a fine (dry) sand,   pouring (by gravity) from one vessel to another.     -- Gerard Schildberger (talk) 04:14, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
