if you're new to cooking, or if you're not from the u.s., the recipes on this site might have you asking: how many cups in a liter/litre? how many teaspoons in a tablespoon? what are "ozzes and libs"? maybe these numbers will help:
volume
1 t (teaspoon) = 4.93 ml (millilitres)
1 T (tablespoon) = 3 t = 14.79 ml
1 fl oz (fluid ounce) = 2 T = 29.57 ml
1 c (cup) = 8 fl oz = 236.59 ml
1 pt (pint) = 2 c = 473.18 ml
1 qt (quart) = 2 pt = 0.95 L (litre)
1 gal (gallon) = 4 qt = 3.79 L
weight
1 oz (ounce) = 28.35 g (grams)
1 lb (pound) = 16 oz = 0.45 kg (kilogram)
