[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not sure if it's incorrect or not, but it sure grates on my nerves when people say "get a coffee" or "grab a coffee." It should be "get a cup of coffee" or "grab a cup of coffee."[/quote] Ok, that's overly pedantic imo. And I'm plenty pedantic as a rule![/quote] No, this drives me crazy, too. Totally legitimate gripe.[/quote] Seems redundant. You don’t need to say “would you like a cup of coffee or a cup of tea?” When you can say “would you like coffee or tea?” It is known that you will get just a cup of a hot beverage. [/quote] DP here. It’s the “a” in “get a coffee” that grates IMO. You can just say get coffee. It also annoys me when people say “a Starbucks.”[/quote]
