some times there are words in English seem like same but all the time they have a little differences some of them do-make and say- tell. So when will we use this words. Can we use them in sentence whichever.

For example:
The sentences are the below Which one is true and why?

1. I made a cake
2. I done a cake

1. I'm saying you
2. I'm telling you

Thank you for your answers. I think in your wep page you havent a search motor that find somethings about our questions so we can ask the same question second time but this search motor will prevent the repetition questions. oh i saw :shock: please dont consider this side

ok I Found answer's my first question it is here

"They do a very good lunch at this restaurant." — "Have you made dinner yet, darling?"

The first sentence describes an activity that takes place on a regular basis:

"They do (offer) a good lunch every day in this restaurant."

The second sentence focuses on a one time situation:

"Have you made dinner yet?"
