The main measurements are built into the cup and are to be viewed looking down into the cup, 1/2-4 tablespoons on the left and 1/4 to 2 ounces on the right. In addition, there are two sets of measurements etched into the sides of the cup opposite the angled measurements, 5-60 milliliters and 1/16, 1/8, and 1/4 cups. I have never used those measurements. My only criticism of the cup is that the measurements “wear out” over time and become illegible, requiring periodic replacement of the cup.
