Cup

The cup is an English unit of volume, most commonly associated with cooking and serving sizes. It is traditionally equal to half a liquid pint in either US customary units or the British imperial system but is now separately defined in terms of the metric system at values between 1⁄5 and 1⁄4 of a liter. Because actual drinking cups may differ greatly from the size of this unit, standard measuring cups are usually used instead. In the United States, the customary cup is half of a liquid pint or 8 U.S. customary fluid ounces. One customary cup is equal to 236.5882365 millilitres.
