What is a "pitcher"?
A pitcher is a type of container used for holding and pouring liquids. It typically features a wide mouth, a handle, and a spout for easy pouring. Pitchers come in various sizes, shapes, and materials, including glass, ceramic, plastic, or metal. They are commonly used for serving beverages such as water, juice, iced tea, lemonade, or cocktails, and they are often found in households, restaurants, bars, and other dining establishments.

Esempio
Grandma's old pitcher, passed down through generations, held sentimental value beyond its practical use.
The pitcher slipped from his grasp, crashing to the floor and shattering into pieces.
After the game, the team gathered around the water cooler to refill their pitchers and hydrate.
The pitcher was filled to the brim with ice-cold lemonade, perfect for a hot summer day.
She carefully poured the tea from the pitcher into each guest's cup, making sure not to spill a drop.
