In the hopes that we in America will join the rest of the civilized world in
adopting the metric system soon ....
The English system of liquid measure is based on the "Pint is a Pound" concept.
A pint of water weighs a pound (ok, at some given temperature?) which is 454
(plus some fraction) grams. A liter of water weighs 1000 grams, by
definition. So a pint is 454 ml. There are 2 cups to a pint so a cup is 227
ml.

Look on a measuring cup, because they all have both US and Metric
measurements right on them.
