Milliliter
A milliliter is one thousandth of a liter, exactly equal to one cubic centimeter.
Formed with the SI prefix milli- applied to the liter.
The standard small-volume unit in cooking, medicine and the laboratory.
Metric prefix system.

Real-world example — Adjacent metric sub-units
One board foot equals 1,000 milliliters. Engineers move between these scales constantly: PCB feature sizes in the larger unit, wire-bond diameters in the smaller.
1 bf × 2359.737216 = 2359.737216 mL
Real-world example — Adjacent small-scale precision
One board foot equals 1,000 milliliters — the standard sub-millimeter precision conversion that materials engineers use whenever they switch between bulk material thickness specs (larger unit) and surface-finish characteristics (smaller unit).
1 bf × 2359.737216 = 2359.737216 mL
