What's the third blank?
At first I thought it would be communication but that's number six, I think.
'I don't disagree that...'
Hi there and thanks a lot for helping with English! I have seen 'I don't disagree that' a couple of times recently in other discussions and I have a question. Agree and disagree have opposite meanings. So 'I don't agree'= I disagree. And vice versa ' I don't disagree'= I agree. Why would someone use this complicated negative form 'I don't disagree' when there is 'I agree'? Does this form has other additional shade if meaning?
What are those curtains that aren't curtains called?

How would you answer this question? The answer A feels right but apparently the correct one is C. (Polish national English contest finale, I'd grade the difficulty at around C2)

Mashed potatoes - countable or uncountable
Hi. How do I treat mashed potatoes? In the end they are turned into one substance, similar to dough. For instance, mashed potatoes were salty or was salty. On the internet I found somebody saying both options would be fine.
Does this sound natural to you?
Can't you stop yourself from being so inconsiderate?
what do you call a person who can distinguish between different tastes in the same food?
For example if they can notice the different notes of the coffee or tell you what are the spices used in the meal. do we say he/she has a strong taste? or there is other adjectives?
Why "Story Rich" and not "Rich Story"?

From Cambridge dictionary. The latter example doesn’t make sense to me
To me the simple statement “none” sounds very unambiguous, contrary to the definition of “equivocally” above. I feel like my english got pretty decent in the last couple of years and it’s been a while since I got so confused by a dictionary definition. The sky is blue, the sea is wet, no patients fully recovered. How does the latter have two opposing meanings?
