Vocabulary
copper pot
Somebody gave me this example:
"I want a proper cup of coffee from a proper copper coffee pot. If I can't have a proper cup of coffee from a proper copper coffee pot I'll have a cup of tea."
This 'proper copper coffee pot' means 'proper coffee pot made of
(the metal of) copper', right?
Thank you.
