Pint (US) (pt (US))
A US pint equals 16 US fluid ounces, or about 473 milliliters. It is used extensively for beverages, dairy products, and food portions. Although derived from British systems, the US pint differs significantly from the UK pint, a discrepancy that often surprises international travelers. The US pint's prevalence in beer, ice cream, and milk packaging ties it closely to American food culture. In cooking and bartending, the pint provides a practical intermediate size, bridging the gap between cups and quarts. Its continued use reflects how cultural and culinary habits shape measurement preferences.
Bath (Biblical) (bath)
A bath is a medium-scale Hebrew unit, estimated at about 22–23 liters. It was used for liquids such as wine and oil and appears in numerous Biblical passages relating to temple rituals and royal allocations. As 1/10 of a homer, the bath provided a manageable quantity for domestic and ritual purposes. References to baths of oil and wine in ancient texts reveal the significance of controlled measurement in both trade and religious offerings. Its size roughly corresponds to the volume of a modern bucket, emphasizing its practicality in daily life.
