What is a US quart?

Two pints, about 946 ml, and close enough to a liter that recipes swap them.

What is an imperial gallon?

Exactly 4.54609 liters since 1985, and the reason UK and US fuel economy figures cannot be compared: it is 20% larger than the US gallon, so 40 mpg in Britain is about 33 mpg in America on the same car.
