Two thousands words
One time I read that to speak foreign language you need to learn two thousands words. And now I am thinking if it is true? I know exactly two thausands and twelf words in English now so this is more than two thausnads and to be honest I have still problem with communication. What should I do, I ask myself? Maybe I should learn next two thousands words? Or maybe without the words I need some grammar structures? Or maybe I should speak and listen to more? Who knows it? And now I know that learning foreign languages is not an easy job. But it makes a full of joy.

a cup of tee
A cup of tee means that we have a cup and in the cup there is tee. The same is with a cup of coffee or other drinks. But what does exactly mean a tee cup. Does is mean that we have a cup and in the cup there is tee or that the cup is made from tee? I know that it is hard to imagine a cup made from tee. Is the same with a paper cup? Is the cup made from paper? And a cup of paper means that in the cup there is some paper? Am I right?
