coffee with no milk or coffee without milk?

[Torsten]

Hi, when you order a coffee, what is the right expression -- coffee with no milk or coffee without milk? Or is just "black coffee"?

Many thanks,
Torsten

when i visited Britain i was told they say "white coffee" when they want milk in the coffee.
as to your question, i suppose it would be "black coffee'' but i am just a student.

Hi

In Britian it is commonplace to use "Black, please", or "coffee, no milk".

Without is infrequently used, unless as a short answer.

A. Milk with your coffee?
B. Without please.

cheers stew.

Hi

I said infrequently used this way, refering to British English.

Torsten is asking for a dialogue for ordering coffee.

The statement could be made in this way, but more likely when at someone´s place.
