I had already narrowed the size down to a smallish (I forgot what I used for comparison) electronic cooking appliance so a full oven was already out. “Toaster oven” was negative, so I tried microwave oven route instead.
Comment on Quizzle – Can you guess the word in fewer than twenty questions?
dom@lemmy.ca 11 months agoEven saying “oven” as correct threw me off. Ive never called a microwave an oven or a microwave oven. I was like starting to think maybe it wanted a specific brand of oven, or a synonym like stove

Well actually…
An oven is something you put food in to cook by heating the air inside of it.
A range is the burner portion.
A stove is a combination of the two.
Yes this is pedantic and I agree that they’re often used interchangeably
