Volume Measures

One US pint is 16 fluid ounces; one UK pint is 20 fluid ounces. (US and UK
fluid ounces are also different, but not by enough to worry about.)

Americans measure many ingredients by the cup; one cup is 8 fluid ounces. The
British have a tendency to measure very large quantities in stones (variously
5, 8, 10, 14 or 16 pounds, depending on what it's a stone of), but you're not
likely to need to know about that unless you're catering for vast numbers of
people or buying a sack of potatoes.
