minus-square_____@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·edit-23 days agookay. a weird thing about English is when people say “I’ll have a water” similar to “a grilled cheese”. why don’t they say the full thing? “a cup of water” or “a grilled cheese sandwich” same thing with coffee etc. saying “a” using an unit really bothers me
