How much is a 'cup'

Hi guys. I keep reading about a cup of food, or half a cup, quarter of a cup etc.

It's not a measurement we use over here (a cup of tea for example is usually served in a mug).

Does anyone know roughly how many Fluid ounces is in a cup?

Thanks Lx

      In the US, a " cup" in 8 oz. fluid or dry. Do a half a cup is 4oz, 1/4 cup is 2oz. Etc. hope that helps

    Hello just wanted to chime in and say the UK ounce is slightly more than the US ounce. 1US cup=8 US ounces but 8 UK ounces = 7.68 US ounces

    Had a measuring pitcher that had US/UK/Metric and noticed the difference in the markings. I always thought it was the same but, apparently not.

    Not a huge difference but good to know, especially if liquid medications are involved. ;-)
