'te' or 'to', thats the question :)

Had to take a look in dictionary for "endowed" and 'cup'.

Cup translated to Dutch means most something like a cup
you use for drinking, tea or coffee.
I assume here also a special meaning is involved.

Funny thing to compare/analise words and phrases between two languages.

Today I opened a drawer in a cabinet to take something out.
By accident I pull to far and the drawer dropped on the ground.
I scream "kut la" meaning "bad drawer".
In speaking it sounds as one word "kutla" and the 't' as in tea.
In Dutch many times the 'd' is spoken as "t".

The name of "Rob Kudla" is easy spoken out as "Rob Kutla", you really
need to speak the "d" as d in day. Why? 

The word "kut" is the slang word for vagina and "la" is the drawer.

Sorry Rob, no offence to you, you are a "gooddrawer" :)
