'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 is your favorite movie you've seen over 5 times?
Mine is "Good Will Hunting". I saw it in my teenagers at the first time and it became my go-to movie. The reason why I loved it so much is because of the relationship between the professor and Will, as well as the relationship between the friend and Will. It's portrayed in a warm way. The professor finds out Will's talent and support him to develop the talent. His friend encourages him to do a challenge. It's very touching. I love touching movies and if you guys have one, share it to me.
Does this sound natural to you?
Can't you stop yourself from being so inconsiderate?
“Open/close the visor.” “Pull down/fold back the visor”. Which one is correct? How do people usually say it? Thanks.

What does “cooked” mean?
Hello everyone! Lately I often hear this word and I don’t know what does it mean. For example I watched caseoh and he said “we are cooked him” and I don’t know what does it mean. English isn’t my first language so can you explain the meaning of this phrase and word?
5 Things I learned about English from 2 weeks on Reddit
Hey everyone! 👋 I’ve been using Reddit for the past two weeks to improve my English, and here’s what I’ve discovered: 1. Context Beats Grammar Rules✍️ Native speakers don’t always stick to perfect grammar - what matters is how natural it sounds. 2. Slang Is Everywhere 🗣️ Phrases like “spill the tea” ☕ or “hot take” 🔥 seemed confusing at first, but context helped me figure them out. 3. Tone Changes Everything 🤔😅 The same sentence can feel friendly or sarcastic depending on punctuation, emojis, or subreddit vibe. 4. Mistakes Are Okay ✅ Even when my grammar wasn’t perfect, people were kind and focused on understanding me. 5. It’s Like Language Immersion🌍 Reddit exposes you to real, everyday English that’s impossible to learn from a textbook. Anyone else using Reddit to practice English? Share your experience! 😊
I am really confused about this word
Whats the meaning of 'Audacity'? And in what different contexts it can be used? Sorry I am learning English and came across this word many times and also in a reddit sub. Please help me : )
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?
