Kanna

Definition: A kanna is a Swedish unit of volume, larger than a 'glas'. It's a traditional unit typically used for measuring liquids like milk or water.

History/origin: The kanna, like the glas, is deeply rooted in Swedish history and represents a customary method of measuring volume. Its definition would have been based on a standard container or vessel used in trade and households.

Current use: The kanna is rarely used in modern contexts due to the adoption of metric units. You might find it referenced in older cookbooks or historical documents related to Sweden.

Decilitre

Definition: A decilitre (symbol: dL) is a unit of volume equal to one tenth of a litre. It is a decimal submultiple of the litre, the standard unit of volume in the metric system.

History/origin: The decilitre originates from the metric system, which was established in France in the late 18th century. The prefix 'deci-' indicates one tenth, signifying its fraction relative to the litre.

Current use: Decilitres are frequently employed in European countries in cooking recipes. Also, they're sometimes used in medical contexts for measuring fluids, especially blood, and in scientific experiments when volume is a critical parameter.
