The other day one of my students asked me which of the following choices cannot be a response to the question "Would you mind bringing some hot coffee?"
And the five alternatives are:
a)Of course not.
b)No problem.
c)Sorry, I can't.
d)Never mind.
e)Not at all.
I instantly told him that the ')Never mind' doesn't sound natural and only marginally grammatical as an answer to the question. But he said that his school teacher differed, as she singled out 'c)Sorry, I can't' as the correct answer.
I want to hear from you native teachers.
