okay. 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
Why waste time say lot word when few word do trick?
You don't use a chisel to take down a wall when the sledgehammer's right there.
