Aug 29, 2014 at 8:37 comment added Tim I wont include them because the literal "translation" of couple is 2, and that is people manipulating the truth - they could equally say 2 and it would be a lie as well!
Aug 29, 2014 at 0:32 comment added bye Non-two uses of a couple also include but I've only had a couple of drinks, Constable and I'll just be a couple of minutes. (Not nit-picking; just being thorough. It's not so much a grammatical or vocabulary issue as a divorce from some aspects of reality.)
