copied/copy - whats the difference?

While transiting through the Wattisham zone I heard somebody reply to the controller: ''copy traffic G-JB''. I was instructed from a very early stage, to reply when warned of nearby traffic: ''Traffic coppied'' not ''copy traffic'' unlike the pilot of the other aircraft. What is the difference between the two?

Does COPY TRAFFIC mean something different to TRAFFIC COPPIED i.e. actually visual or not visual at this time but looking out?

Maybe a silly question, but its bugged me for a while now
