(smacking hand on forehead) My mind was obviously somewhere else,
like deep in the crotch of those Mamluk sirwal.

That should say "cuillere a soupe" and "cuillere a cafe".
There's an accent grave over the first 'e' in cuillere and an accent
grave over the solo 'a' - i left them out because i suspect they are
keyed differently on different computer.

Sheesh. My vast apologies.

"So," you may say, if you don't speak French, "what's the difference? (shrug)"

Well, "cuillere a soupe" is a soup spoon, while "cuillere de soupe"
is a spoonful of soup.
