What is a US Gill? History, origin and usage
The gill is a very old English measure equal to a quarter of a pint, recorded as early as the 13th century for dispensing ale and wine. The US gill of four fluid ounces preserves the pre-1824 wine-gallon proportions, while Britain's imperial gill of five fluid ounces came from the 1824 reforms.
The gill has almost vanished from everyday use, surviving mainly in the historic measuring of spirits. Before metrication, British and Irish pubs poured spirits in fractions of a gill.
A gill is also called a noggin or a jack in parts of England, and confusingly in some northern areas the word gill was used for a half-pint instead. The US gill (four US fluid ounces) and the imperial gill (five imperial fluid ounces) are different sizes.
What is a Litre? History, origin and usage
The litre was introduced in France in 1795 as a republican measure equal to one cubic decimetre, its name derived from the older French litron, in turn from Byzantine Greek (where it had been a unit of weight) via Late Medieval Latin. In 1901 the litre was redefined as the volume of one kilogram of pure water at maximum density, making it very slightly larger than a cubic decimetre. In 1964 that awkward definition was abandoned and the litre returned to being exactly one cubic decimetre.
The litre is the everyday metric unit of volume across most of the world: fuel sold at the pump, bottled water and soft drinks, milk, engine and cooking oil, and car engine capacity. It is the unit people reach for whenever a volume is larger than a kitchen spoonful but smaller than a tankful.
The litre is not an official SI unit but is accepted for use alongside it. Its symbol may be written as a capital L precisely because a lowercase l is easily mistaken for the digit 1 in many fonts.

How to use this US Gill to Litre converter
Type a number into the US Gill field and the equivalent in Litre appears instantly — there is no “convert” button to press and nothing is sent to a server, so it works offline once the page has loaded and is safe for any data. You can also type into the Litre field to convert the other way (litre to us gill). Use the swap control to flip the two units, and copy the result with a single click. Because the calculation runs in your browser with full floating-point precision, the converter is more exact than the rounded figures shown in the reference chart above — use the chart for quick look-ups and the tool for precise work.
Accuracy and method
Every figure on this page — the formula, the worked examples, the conversion chart and the “convert to other units” tables — is computed from a single verified conversion factor (1 gi = 0.1182941L), never copied from a hand-typed lookup table that could drift. That factor is derived from each unit’s definition in terms of a common base unit, and an automated check re-verifies all of the site’s factors on every update, so the numbers here stay correct over time. This matters for us gill-to-litre conversions because a small rounding error in a published table compounds quickly at larger quantities; computing from the exact factor avoids that.
Watch the system: a <strong>US</strong> gallon, quart, pint and fluid ounce are <strong>not</strong> the same size as the <strong>imperial (UK)</strong> ones — a US gallon is 3.785 L while an imperial gallon is 4.546 L, and a US fluid ounce (29.57 mL) is slightly larger than an imperial fluid ounce (28.41 mL). The units on this page are labelled US or Imperial so the result is unambiguous.
