Why do I keep hearing "Do you mad?" instead of "Are you mad?" 😭 Am I tripping?
Movie: Past Lives (2023). I watched it with someone, and he insists that he heard "Are you mad?". I swear, it doesn’t make any sense to me. 😭 I know that's the grammatically correct version, and the subtitles SRT confirmed it. BUT no matter how many times I replay the line, I can only hear "Do you mad?". What do you hear, anyway?
I don't get it whatever I do!

Why is there a "to" in the last sentence? It sounds more natural to me without it

Are there better ways to say “Don't make the same mistake repeatedly.”?
Idioms, slangs, anything could help. The translation on google is super robotic and unnatural.
What would you call this drink? Is there a name for it in English? (it's made with dried fruits - apples, pears, raisins, apricots etc., + sugar and water, and you let it simmer for a little bit)

Do you have a word in English you just can’t pronounce right (and How Did You Fix It)?"
For me, it’s "thorough." Every time I try to say it, it ends up sounding like "throw" or something completely wrong. It’s tricky, but I’ve started practicing it in sentences to force myself to get it right. Turns out, repeating it in context helps me remember it better and expands my vocabulary too! What’s your word? One that trips you up every time but makes you want to master it? Share it here, maybe we can all learn a few new words along the way!

Do people say something is "too shabby" ??
I've only heard people say "not too shabby" so I'm wondering if that's like an idiom by itself, or is something being "too shabby" a thing??
