Ball of Confusion
the temptations are the best singing group in the world. if you do not believe this is true, i will fight you. in Montreal they call a cheeseburger fries and a coke a "Trio" as this is numerically and quantitatively true, the word "Trio" in Montreal is a Proper Noun. This becomes confusing when you acknowledge the fact that in the rest of Canada a specific food assortment is referred to as a "Combo" which, other than being an abbreviation of the Adjective "combination" (which is primarily defined as an act or instance of combining; the process of being combined.) But "combo" (similarly an adjective) is also defined as "a small jazz, rock, or pop band" primarily, and secondarily defined as "a combination, typically of different foods". But holding no quantitative value, it is a more general, and appropriate Proper Noun as it includes the possibility of a Combination of 4 or More Items as well as 2 or Fewer. As a Trio (Proper Noun) is in reference to a specific three items, it is restricted to only these items as opposed to being an ambiguous generalized title. i guess what i'm getting at is if i get a "Number 2" off the menu and its a cheeseburger fries and a coke, then i can refer to it as the "Trio" OR the "Combo" and if i get a cheese burger fries and a coke AND chicken nuggets, it is still technically a "combination" but is no longer a "Trio" and therefore is no longer a "Combo" as a combo is a specific combination as opposed to a varied assortment.
