Pint
Definition: A pint (pnt) is a unit of volume in the Imperial and United States customary systems. There are two types of pints: liquid pints and dry pints, which have slightly different volumes.
History/origin: The pint has historical roots in measuring systems used for selling liquids and dry goods. Its volume has been standardized over time within each system.

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.
