| Jul 5 at 4:48 | comment | added | bob1 | @Arwenz Just to clear up ambiguity from other comments. Mortar can be used for the singular of mortars as in "I have a mortar and pestle". You've used the wrong wording in the comment, in a common mistake for non-native speakers - it should have read "Were there any mortars", but it isn't wrong to use the word mortar to indicate the bowl-shaped implement. | |
