No, a teaspoon which is for stirring is not the same as a teaspoon used as a measure; the same is true for "tablespoons". A "teaspoon" that is used for stirring can, technically speaking, be any size, but is usually smaller than a tablespoon, which is, typically, used for soups, etc, and can be any size. A "teaspoon" used in measuring, is always 0.167 fluid ounce (n.b., one "tablespoon" used for measuring is alwaysequivalent to 3 teaspoons or .5 (or 1/2) fluid ounces). Refer to the links, below, for further information and a measuring converter.
