The Sound Of It - Wino

Assume the following are all equal amounts which sounds like you drank more?

A.) Two Glasses of Wine
B.) A Couple Glasses of Wine
C.) A Half Bottle of Wine


How about this...

A.) A Whole Bottle of Wine
B.) A Bottle of Wine
C.) Four Glasses of Wine

Just curious I notice the wording makes a difference even thought the amount referenced is the same....weird huh? Which sound like the most in each group to you?

In the first set:

A Half Bottle of wine

In 2nd:

A whole bottle of wine.

Glass amounts of wine don't really mean anything to me since I'm not a wine drinker. But thinking someone drank a half or whole bottle of anything sounds like more.

B & B: couple glasses wine, and a bottle of wine (and after that I'm about ready to get started drinking)

Whole typically makes something sound very big. The "whole enchilada" etc..
