@Watael: It is not very useful to suggest reading the manual on a command you dont yet know. The point of the question was to determine cp; not to ask how to use it.
Perhaps something along the lines of: "cp or mv will copy or move files, respectively. If you'd like more information on either you can run the command apropos. For example: apropos cp will give you information on how to use the cp command.
