Language & Geography: Coventry

Coventry is an industrial city in central England. Its cathedral was built in 1962 to replace a very old cathedral that was destroyed by bombs in World War II. The University of Warwick is in Coventry.
Send someone to Coventry means to refuse to speak to someone as a sign of disapproval or as a punishment; ostracize.
