Hello. The thing that troubled me the most when learning English was differentiating when to respond with a "yes" or a "no".
I think it's because of the interference of my first language, Korean.
For example, when somebody asks you, "Do you dislike the cake?", then would it be correct to say "No, I don't like the cake." or "Yes, I like the cake." in English?
Because in Korean, if you don't like the cake, you say "Yes, I don't like the cake." and "No, I like the cake.". So it's opposite from English.
P.S. Please correct me if I have any punctuation or grammar mistakes.
