Making sweets One of my hobbies is to make sweets and I like to bake cakes and cookies in my free time. There are hundreds of easy recipes on the internet nowadays, but sometimes they don't work well even though I follow them thoroughly from measuring ingredients to setting a proper temperature of the oven. I suppose that's what is difficult about baking pastries. The reason why is because each oven has each different performance. That is to say, baking time and temperature differ depending on ovens that you use. So it is needed to try and adjust them until figuring out the best way to bake with your own oven. That is kind of hard work, but it makes me even happier when I made it.

How to respond with "Sure" I came across the following dialogue and wondered why it was like this. A: Would you mind doing me a favor? B: Sure. I thought the word "sure" was like "yes", so it sounds a bit strange if B wants to help A. Why is it possible to say "sure" to the question sentence using "mind"? And are there any similar cases like this? Thank you.

How to use 了 in the past tense sentences Which one is correct to say "I went to a supermarket yesterday." in Chinese? If they are all correct, what are the differences? 1 我昨天去了超市。 2 我昨天去超市了。 3 我昨天去了超市了。 I'm a bit confused about how to use 了. I learned 了 is put after verbs to express that the actions have completed, but also learned that sentences cannot be ended without 了 if objects are not specific. "超市" is not an object, so is it okay to say "去了超市"? I'd be happy if you could teach me about this. Thank you.

How to ask a question during a conversation How would you say when you want to ask a question that you come up with suddenly during a conversation, which is not related to the current subject which the other party is talking about?
