Why is the abbreviation for liter a capital l?

The abbreviation for liter is actually a lowercase l, not a capital L.

The confusion might arise because a capital L can sometimes be used to represent liters in some contexts, especially in handwritten notes or informal settings. However, the official and internationally recognized abbreviation for liter is l.

This is similar to how the abbreviation for gram is g, not G. Using lowercase letters for these units helps distinguish them from other units that use capital letters, like Kelvin (K) or Celsius (°C).
