Poll When you say "a couple" do you mean two or do you mean a few (396 votes)
When I was little, I would often use "a couple" to describe a small or medium amount of something. Like, say I've only seen some romantic comedies but not a lot. I'd say "I've seen a couple romantic comedies." That's not true though because couple means two. This is what the word means.
So do you use it the right way or the wrong way? I still see people using "a couple" to describe a few of a thing and not two of a thing.
