About Tablespoons
A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary cooking measurement equal to 3 teaspoons or 1/2 fluid ounce - approximately 14.787 mL. It is the standard 'large spoon' measurement in hundreds of millions of American recipes - used for butter portions, oil, sugar, sauce, and condiment quantities. Outside cooking, tablespoons appear in DIY instructions, garden fertilizer dosages, and cleaning product formulations. A typical soup spoon holds roughly one tablespoon. The tablespoon is the practical bridge between the tiny teaspoon and the larger cup in everyday kitchen measurement.
About Tuns

English shipping law rated cargo capacity in 'tuns burden'. Scottish distilleries use 'tun rooms' for large vatting/blending vats. 1 tun = 252 US gal = 2 pipes = 4 hogsheads ≈ 953.9 L.
