How much is a "cup"?
Well... how much is it? :)

Your question is a little vague. What is it that you want to know? A cup is a cup or two 1/2 cups, three 1/3 cups, four 1/4 cups, etc. Do you want to know how may tsp, oz, grams, etc in a cup?

It depends on what you are measuring, in liquids it is 250ml. I bought a little measuring cup set which I find really helps. It only cost a few dollars.
|
a cup, dry measure is 16 tablespoons, or about the size of a baseball or a tennis ball.

Thanks guys! I'm in Argentina..., so I am used to the metric system and I cannot buy an "american" measuring cup (in case there is such a thing). The "250 ml" answer was very useful. Many times, when logging in food, it says "a cup"... so now I know! I'll just take my regular measuring cup and I'll fill it up to 250 ml.

That should work!

If you don't have a measuring cup handy, you can always use your fist for comparison- assuming your fist is "average" size.
|
If you run into similar issues with measurements, there are websites that do conversions from one unit to another. According to this site one cup = approx. 236.6 ml.
