I do not know why these are known as ‘pot’ pies. There isn’t a ‘pot’ of any kind concerned. However who am I to argue with phrases, their utilization, and that means (or lack thereof).
Phrases, like all the pieces else, evolve.
I used to be concerned in a dialogue about DuoLingo just lately – with the Brits claiming that there have been too many American phrases within the translations.
Humorous – I hadn’t seen. However there do appear to be some frequent British grammar mis-uses.
On to the pie.

Courageous canine.
Then he seen the bees and was decided to catch one. He discovered one on the bottom and was virtually profitable. I debated whether or not or not I ought to let him get it. Normally canine solely catch 1 bee per lifetime. I felt sorry for the bee and pulled Hector away. They’re (the bees) are simply now popping out of winter hibernation and need to have somewhat time within the sunshine and flowers to get their energy again.
