The smaller measurement is the smaller letter... Larger letter, larger measurement. Easy when you think of it that way.

Just think of it like this - a TEAspoon you will use to stir a cup of tea (like the English does) - so its smaller - and a TABLEspoon you will use when sitting at a table eating dessert - after all (if you are anything like me) you would like to have BIG helpings of dessert. icon_wink.gif

When I was first learning this as a little kid, I always remembered it because a TABLEspoon (Tbsp) had the "B" in it .... "B" for Big Spoon.
