Dažna klaida:
Learners often use "wet" when "moist" would be more natural, especially for food and soil. "Wet" can mean very or completely covered with water and may sound wrong for things like cake. For example, "wet cake" sounds like an accident, but "moist cake" sounds positive and is the normal phrase.
