In some countries, the teaspoon is used as a unit of volume, especially in cooking recipes and pharmaceutic prescriptions. It is abbreviated in English as t. or tsp., German and Dutch: TL, from Teelöffel or Theelepel. A teaspoon is often taken to mean 5 millilitres. 1 millilitre of water is 1 gram. Only pure water! 3.4 teaspoons are 17 millilitres or 17 grams of water. So the answer in the question is wrong. Teaspoon dry has the problem of the unknown specific weight, also known as he weight per unit volume of a material, like sugar or powder sugar.

One gram could equal a teaspoon, but that would depend on what you filled the teaspoon with (the density of the substance). For instance, a teaspoon of water is about five grams.
