Tablespoon

Definition: A tablespoon (Tbs) is a unit of volume, commonly used in cooking. It is defined as three teaspoons or approximately 15 milliliters.

History/origin: Similar to the teaspoon, the tablespoon likely originated as a measure based on the size of actual tablespoons used for serving food. Its volume has been standardized over time.

Current use: The tablespoon is a common unit in recipes, especially in the United States. It's used for measuring larger volumes of ingredients than teaspoons.

Fluid Ounce

Definition: A fluid ounce (fl oz) is a unit of volume used for liquids. There are two different definitions: the US fluid ounce and the Imperial fluid ounce, which differ slightly in volume.

History/origin: The fluid ounce has roots in ancient Roman measuring systems. It was later adopted into the Imperial and US customary systems, although the definitions diverged.

Current use: The fluid ounce is widely used for measuring liquids in both the United States (US fl oz) and the United Kingdom (Imperial fl oz), although the metric system is becoming increasingly common.
