Please teach me the meaning of the below sentences.
1. I put on water ( and heated it).
2. I put on coffee.
* #1. is shown in Raymond Carver's story first, and many in Web. # 2. is shown in web, and I listed to compare it with #1.:roll:
Does #1 mean that put any container of water on some device like heater, or does "put on " here mean just "prepare" ? Or ? In case of water/ coffee, same meaning? ?
Thanks in advance.
