About Teaspoons and Fluid ounces

Teaspoons (tsp): Standardized at about 5 mL for cooking purposes; US legal definition is exactly 4.92892 mL, but international cooking convention uses 5 mL even in the US. Common uses: Small cooking measurements (spices, baking powder, vanilla extract), liquid medication dosing for adults (often 1 or 2 teaspoons = 5 or 10 mL).

Fluid ounces (fl oz): 1/128 of a US gallon, or 29.5735 mL; the UK imperial fluid ounce is slightly different at 28.4131 mL, a remnant of pre-metric British measurement. Common uses: US beverage container sizes (a 12-oz soda can), US liquid recipe measurements, and UK pub measures for spirits (where a 'single' is 25 or 35 mL but historically tracked from imperial fl oz).
