Cultural Background
中文
在中国，人们通常用升（shēng）或毫升（háoshēng）来衡量液体的容量，用立方米（lìfāngmǐ）或立方厘米（lìfāng gōngfēn）来衡量固体的容量。在日常生活中，人们也经常使用一些非标准的计量单位，例如桶、盆、碗等。
容量的表达方式在不同场合下有所不同。在正式场合，应使用标准的计量单位；在非正式场合，可以使用一些更口语化的表达方式。
拼音
English
In China, the capacity of liquids is usually measured in liters (升, shēng) or milliliters (毫升, háoshēng), and the capacity of solids is usually measured in cubic meters (立方米, lìfāngmǐ) or cubic centimeters (立方厘米, lìfāng gōngfēn). In daily life, people also often use some non-standard units of measurement, such as buckets, basins, and bowls.
The way capacity is expressed varies in different situations. In formal situations, standard units of measurement should be used; in informal situations, some more colloquial expressions can be used.
