Sorry nead a moan, what is it with the younger generation calling mugs cups?

I keep hearing and seeing mugs described as cups, as far as im aware cups are usualy little and with saucers.

now don't get me started :biggrin:

Scottish thing as well, drives you mad! Lol.

I've discovered that lots of people in Yorkshire call my mugs beakers. Now what's that all about?!

is it ? first i have heard of it !.

Always called a mug "a mug" - ok, a few other people as well, but back on topic

ok, i,m not "young", maybe thats why i aint heard of it

So to hit the searches we need to put "personalised mug, cup, beaker"

I asked my daughter (23) if she was searching ebay, amazon, ect for a mug, what would she search and she said cup!!!:frown:
and ive always called them mugs, so where did she get bloomin cup from

No tea for her tonight.

god help us viccar - the youth

yes but do you say to someone "would you like a cup of tea/coffe?" or "would you like a mug of tea/coffee?" I always ask people "would you like a cup of tea/coffe?" but serve it in a mug as cups don't exist in my house!!!!
