“Didn’t you go to the party last night?” Which response is correct ? Would it cause confusion if I only said “yes” or “no”?

1. No, I did. 2. No, I didn’t. 3. Yes, I did. 4. Yes. I didn’t.

Not conjugating 'To be'

Not conjugating 'To be'

In what cases I can dismiss the conjugation rules?

Pronouncing "uncomfortable" at normal speed in a sentence

I sometimes sound like I'm saying "unconfterble" or "uncomterble", rather than the one we hear all the time. I've always wondered why it's not pronounced as "un com for ta ble."

Is it correct?

Is it correct?

Is it correct to say "The recipe serves 2-4 slices"? I mostly see "the recipe serves 1/2/3 people"

what english words always mess you up?

English has some words that are really confusing. For me, it’s "borrow" and "lend." I always said "Can you borrow me a pen?" and didn’t realize it was wrong until someone corrected me. Another one is "fun" and "funny." I used to say something was funny when I just meant it was fun. It still gets me sometimes. What about you? Are there any words in English that confuse you no matter how much you practice? I’m curious if we share the same struggles
