About Dessertspoon (US) (dsp (US))
Definition
The US dessertspoon is a unit of volume approximately double a teaspoon, equal to about 9.858 milliliters, or 2 US teaspoons.
Mathematical Relationship
1 US dsp ≈ 2 US tsp ≈ 2/3 US tbsp ≈ 9.858 mL.
Conversion Formula
To mL: multiply by 9.858. To teaspoons (US): multiply by 2. To tablespoons (US): multiply by 0.667.
Practical Applications
Occasionally used in British/Australian recipes that have been adapted for US kitchens, and in traditional herbal medicine dosing.
Interesting Facts
The dessertspoon is a standard part of a formal European place setting, positioned between the soup spoon and teaspoon.
Common Mistakes
Confusing with a tablespoon — a dessertspoon is about 2/3 of a tablespoon, not half.
Educational Tips
Think of the dessertspoon as 'double a teaspoon' — roughly 10 mL. It's the forgotten middle sibling of measuring spoons.
About Exaliter (EL)
Definition
The exaliter is a unit of volume equal to 10¹⁸ liters, or one million cubic kilometers.
Mathematical Relationship
1 EL = 10¹⁸ L = 10¹⁵ m³ = 10⁶ km³ = 1,000 PL.
Conversion Formula
To liters: multiply by 10¹⁸. To km³: multiply by 10⁶. To petaliters: multiply by 1,000.
Practical Applications
No practical applications — this scale exists only for astronomical and theoretical comparisons.
Interesting Facts
All the water on Earth (oceans, ice, groundwater, lakes, rivers, atmosphere) totals about 1.386 EL.
Common Mistakes
Almost never encountered, so mistakes are rare. The main risk is confusion with other 'E' prefixes (e.g., eV in energy).
Educational Tips
Think of the exaliter as the 'planet volume' unit. Earth's oceans ≈ 1.335 EL. Prefix: exa = 10¹⁸ = quintillion.
