A liter (l) is a fundamental unit used to measure volume in the metric system.
In simple terms, it measures the amount of space a substance occupies, like the amount of soda in a bottle. The plural form is liters.
The liter was introduced in France in 1795 during the French Revolution.
It was created as part of a movement toward a more logical and universal system of measurement, which later evolved into the modern metric system.
Initially, the definition of a liter was based on the weight of one kilogram of pure water.
While the original definition was based on the mass of water, it was updated for greater precision and consistency.
Today, the official definition directly connects the liter to a unit of length, making it easier to understand.
So, how big is a liter?
A liter is officially defined as exactly one cubic decimeter (1 dm3).
This means a liter is the volume of a perfect cube with sides that are each 10 centimeters long (10 cm × 10 cm × 10 cm).
The difference between "liter" and "litre" is simply a regional spelling choice—the volume they represent is precisely the same!
Both spellings are correct, and the one you use depends on where you are.
A Tesked (tsk), the Swedish word for "teaspoon," is a unit of volume in the metric system.
It is a standard measurement in cooking, especially in Swedish recipes, and is officially defined as being equal to 5 milliliters (ml).
The plural form is Teskedar.
For a quick reference, here are the most important conversions:
One Tesked (tsk) is precisely equal to 5 milliliters (ml).
Since one tsk is 0.005 liters and there are 1000 milliliters in a liter, the conversion is straightforward (0.005 × 1000 = 5).
This makes the Tesked a practical unit for measuring small volumes, particularly in cooking or medicine, where milliliter measurements are standard.
In the metric system, a standard tablespoon (or "Matsked" in Swedish) is defined as 15 ml.
Therefore, three Teskedar are equal to one tablespoon (3 × 5 ml = 15 ml).
This simple 3-to-1 ratio is a fundamental and easy-to-remember conversion for anyone working with metric recipes, allowing for quick scaling and adjustment of ingredients.
The term "Tesked" literally translates from Swedish to "teaspoon" (Te = tea, sked = spoon).
In Sweden and many other countries that use the metric system for culinary measurements, the standard volume for a teaspoon is officially defined as 5 ml.
Because of this, the "Tesked" unit directly corresponds to the everyday metric teaspoon used in recipes worldwide.
The plural form, Teskedar, means "teaspoons."
