Talk:bowl

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

In few non english languages dish for soup is refered to as plate (which can be called soup or deep plates). Eventually soup can be served from a bowl which is much deeper than plate but have smaller diameter (hemispherical aspect of the bowl) Recently my english friends rebuked me that soup is always eaten from a bowl not from the plate?! Does anyone know any possible sources of where the names for plate and bowl originated from?
