It's what you pour into the pan before baking the cake.
70
Okay, and now?
71
Now I have to preheat the oven.
72
Preheat?
73
I have to heat the oven before putting the cake in.
74
Oh, for some minutes, right?
75
For a few minutes, actually.
76
Some minutes is not an amount of time, but a noun phrase.
77
For example, others, but you can say "bake the cake for some minutes".
78
Okay, and how many time to bake it?
79
You should say how long should we bake it for?
80
How long should we bake it for?
81
According to this chart, it depends on the size of our baking pan.

83
So we have to cook it for 26 to 31 minutes?
84
Correct.

But you can call anything that goes on top of the cake the topping.
105

If you use the verb put, you need to have a preposition.
107

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
