The word 'corkscrew' is mostly associated with wine bottles, a common context in which the tool is used. Could you pass me the corkscrew so I can open this Chardonnay?
Pro Tip 2/3
Not Just Wine
'Corkscrew' is for any bottled beverage with a cork, not just wine. I need a corkscrew to open this vintage bottle of cider.
Pro Tip 3/3
Manual Tool
A corkscrew requires hand operation; it's not electric or automatic. I prefer an old-fashioned manual corkscrew over electric wine openers.
