I thought it's gallonally in the US.. what's a liter?
A quart that travelled to Europe to ‘find itself’.
Oh, that's easy. A liter is what you buy bottled water by and you buy soda pop in 2 liter bottles. Wine and whisk(e)y is 750ml bottles. It's also the displacement of your car's engine. Though we use cc's for chainsaws and motorcycles, weird I know.
So Americans are well familiar with a liter.
