    I agree with Tara. It does sound confusing. Maybe you are supposed to be talking about a "rack of back ribs." Back ribs is a section of meat and bone that the butcher cuts from the pig right next to the spine of the pig. The ribs stay together in a row of many ribs (8 to 12 ribs together |||||||||||| like piano keys). The row is called a "rack" of ribs. The best meat is on the small ribs next to the lower part of the spine. These ribs are smaller then the ribs at the chest. These smaller ribs are called "baby back" ribs. If this is what you are trying to say, then the phrase would be, "I just bought one kilogram of pork back ribs to cook." bon appetit. :-)

    Thomas, you are correct. It is not correct to use double negatives (DN). if you want to sound like an intelligent person do not use double negatives like the examples you listed. There are exceptions, but exceptions are rare, sound confusing - even to English listeners - and are usually not necessary. People who use DN sound stupid. When Pink Floyd sang, "We don't need no education," this was an example of irony ( a little funny) because the words sound stupid, so maybe they really DO need education. make sense? Mick Jagger "can't get no satisfaction," either, but he is rich so maybe he does not need to care about sounding smart. :-)

    It sounds like there is extra food after a party. The food was hot for the party, but party is over and now the food is cold. Person One is talking to person Two. One is saying he will do as little as possible, One will not get the dish, One will not warm the food, BUT if Two will get the dish then One will put some of the extra food onto the dish. The extra food is now cold when the party is over. One says he “will serve…some cold.” I hope that helps.

    Black dude is Chris Tucker. This is a different way for Tucker to say, “See I have quick hands too, same as you.” It is funny because Chan is famous for his quick hands. I hope that helps. Thank you for the you tube link. That helped me to understand.

    Javi, I agree with Deborah. No. 1 is fine. No 2 needs context. I will give you some possible choices, with a dictionary you can decide what you want to say. 2a, Don't make problems for your boss. Don’t make troubles for your boss. ((problems for your boss = troubles for your boss = you made a mistake and your boss has to fix it.)) 2b, Don't make troubles with your boss. ((troubles with your boss = you and your boss are not happy together)) 2c, Don’t make problems with your boss. ((English listener will understand you fine, but 2b sounds a little better.)) Extra Credit :-) : it is confusing, but you can say “make trouble” or “make troubles” or “make problems” or “make a problem” it is NOT correct to say “make (a) trouble” I hope that helps. -mike
