What's hard to understand? It's 1/16 lb, except when it's fluid, then it's 1/10 of a cup, which is 1/2 of a pint, which is 1/2 of a quart, which is 1/4 of a gallon. There's a special measure that's half way between quart and gallon called handle, but it's only used for liquor.
Ounces are a volumetric measurement. Grated cheese is a large percent air.
Fluid Oz are, that's just regular 16 oz a lb ounces.
Damned American Imperial system. I will never understand you.

Excellent, of course. I was also taught "A pint's a pound the whole world around", which it is except when in some places it isn't.
That one's on :ukkk:.
Also different density of liquids. Using the same word for both a volume and mass is really dumb if it only converts for one thing.
