Unit Definition (gill [UK])
The gill [UK] is a traditional unit of volume for liquids, especially wine and other alcoholic beverages. The gill is 1/4 pint. In the British Imperial system, the gill equals 5 fluid ounces, 8.670 cubic inches, or about 137.7 milliliters. The unit is pronounced "jill", with a soft "g" sound. Its name comes a Latin word gillo for a small wine vessel.

Unit Definition (shot)
The shot is a traditional unit of liquid volume. The term "shot" is often used informally to mean "a small serving." In the U.S. a shot is legally equal to one fluid ounce or 29.574 milliliters. However, many bartenders use larger shot glasses holding 1.25 fluid ounces (37.0 milliliters), and some shot glasses hold the same as a jigger: 1.5 fluid ounces or 44.4 milliliters.
