cup counter
Used to count cups, glasses, bowls, or servings of liquid, such as drinks and soups.
It can also be used to count things that are typically served in a vessel, like scoops of ice cream or servings of rice.

“How do verb conjugations work in Japanese?”
Japanese verbs conjugate based on tense, politeness, and mood. For example, the polite present form adds ‑ます to the verb stem, while the past tense uses ‑ました. Unlike English, Japanese verbs don't change based on the subject — the same form works for "I", "you", and "they".
