In [[Russian language|Russian]] and some other languages of the former [[Soviet Union]], the ''are'' is called {{lang|ru-Latn|sotka}} ([[:ru:Ар|сотка]]: 'a hundred', i.e. 100 m2 or {{sfrac|1|100}} hectare). It is used to describe the size of suburban [[dacha]] or [[allotment garden]] plots or small city parks where the hectare would be too large. Many Russian dachas are 6 ares in size (in Russian, {{lang|ru|шесть соток}}).
