Date: 2007-10-20 05:43 pm (UTC)Were your asking if we use the metric system in the US? We typically use ounces, liters or gallons to describe drinks.
What kind of drink were you thinking about?

Date: 2007-10-20 06:38 pm (UTC)If I'm reading a story where the characters are in the US and someone orders a "pint," I'll immediately know that the author is British. If they're drinking beer, go with a mug. Or in many places, you can order a pitcher of beer and then pour in glasses for everyone. Or have them order a large tap beer.

Date: 2007-10-20 08:37 pm (UTC)I think. Long time since I went to public school, pre-metric.
Pints aren't metric. Don't Americans use pints?
My husband just told me that Canadians are more into pints than Americans, and that their pints are a different size. I guess size does matter.

The world is an odd place.

Date: 2007-11-05 03:15 pm (UTC)One of the other people posted - 2 pints in a quart, 4 quarts in a gallon. A pint is 2 cups. A cup is 8 ounces. A gallon is 128 ounces - 16 cups - 8 16 oz pints. A pint is intrinsically related to the size of a gallon.
Are gallons a different size in the UK? Or are "pints" of alcoholic beverages different in size from, say, the "pint" of cream you might buy for purposes of cooking? That is to say, do you use a different size pint to get drunk? :D
It seems v. strange to me.
