Cups to grams
Grams per cup are typical values for spooned and levelled cups; packed or sifted ingredients weigh more or less. A kitchen scale is the most accurate.

Questions
Is a cup the same everywhere?
No. A US cup is 236.6 ml, a metric cup (Australia, Canada, much of Asia) is 250 ml and an old UK cup is 284 ml. Pick the cup your recipe uses.
How accurate are the conversions?
Length, weight, temperature, area and volume use the exact international definitions (for example 1 inch = 2.54 cm, 1 pound = 0.45359237 kg). Shoe and clothing sizes are typical charts: brands differ a little, so check the brand's own size chart before you buy.
What is a tola in grams?
One tola is 11.6638 grams, the unit used for gold in Pakistan and India. A maund (man) is 40 seers, about 37.32 kg.
