Questions about example sentences with, and the definition and usage of "Dish"

A: When you use the same word with *upon* in between it usually means a lot of that there is a lot of that item: for example *clothes upon clothes* means a lot of clothes. And they pressed dish upon dish onto him would mean that they gave him dishes one after another without stop.

A: The term is actually dish soap. It is not soup, but literally just soap made to clean dishes.

A: or, a plate

A: A dish could be a pot or pan, a bowl, plate, or anything that you cook or eat with. A dish can also be another word for meal. Example: That was a delicious dish you made. Or: Can you wash the dishes please?

A: You don’t have to wash the dishes.

I can’t think of any other examples right now.

A: No if you just say dish then it refers to plate. “Why don’t you hand out that dish to the guests?” But if you say “dish out” America people will think you are saying the expression.

A: "Dish" can mean the same thing as plate, or it could also mean a side or meal. Example: "She's cooking that dish for the party."

A: The first is hypothetical and general, and could be any time, with "If I had to." It could be about your favorite food in general. The second is real and now, "if I have to." It might be about the food that you are going to order with a group right now, but you only get to choose one.

Also, the first as you wrote it is perfect: "If I had to V1, I'd V2." But the second one would be "If I have to choose ... (then) I say," or "... (then) I'll say," but not "If I have to choose ..., then I'd probably say." With conditional both places, it's perfect, or with the present (or an equivalent) both places, it's fine. Just don't mix them.

A: “Made of” implies that there is rice in the dish, but that the rice may have been altered into a new substance. You can say “This cloth is made of spider silk”, so the thing it was made of “spider silk” has been transformed into a new object “cloth”. Another example “This rice cake is made from white rice” so it’s still rice, but it is now a new object, a rice cake. “Made from” is interchangeable in English with “Made of”.

“Made with” is very similar to “Made of/Made from”, but you usually use “Made with” when you are describing something that is composed of multiple different things to make a new object. So you could say, “Indian curry is made with goat milk, turmeric, cumin, flour, etc.” The new object being “curry” and the compositional objects being “goat milk, turmeric, cumin, etc.”.

Now, “Made of/Made from” can be used in situations where you would say “Made with”, but you can’t really do it the other way around. “Made with” implies multiple components only whereas “Made of/Made from” can imply both, but usually from one substance.

A: A plate can only be the object and dish can also mean the food itself. “He made a simple dish of vegetables and rice”. We also use the word “dishes” for talking about washing plates, bowls, silverware etc. “I need to wash the dishes.”

A: You could say something like "I'm just going to have some leftovers for lunch" or "I'm going to reheat some leftovers for dinner" if you are going to take an old meal (e.g. from yesterday) and have it again or finish it off today.

do the dishes と言えば、話している人も聞いてる人も「どの」dishes がわかっている状況です。dishesが特定されている。普通の the の使い方です。「その、それらの」という意味です。例えば、カップルで 今食べ終わったお皿を洗って、という時は2人とも「どのお皿」が分かっているのでthe をつけます。

特に指定しない場合は、theいりません。
When I do dishes, I wash glasses first. お皿洗う時はグラスから洗う。
一般論として話していて、今実際にお皿が溜まっているわけではありません。

A: Sorry, I think this sentence is a little unnatural. (I don't know how to change my vote. It was a mistake.)

An alternative:
--Before I start washing the dishes, I place the dishes and utensils under running hot water to soften stuck-on food.

I think the original sentence is a little unnatural because "run" or "running" should be about the water and not the dishes and utensils. When you turn the tap or faucet, you are "running" the hot water, not the dishes and the utensils.

If you mean that you are moving the dishes and utensils back and forth under the hot water, maybe that could be called "running" the dishes and utensils under the hot water--but I've not heard it stated that way before.

A: Yes it does
