French help please? ?



My teacher was saying something about ‘pas de’. that it is alway pas de. i think?
so here’z a fill-in-the-blank of my homework.

‘non, je n’aime pas __ poisson.’
would it actually be DE or is it LE?
and if it IS de, would this be des also, or would it be les?:
ils mangent __ legumes.
would de be only for negative or what?

thank you so much for all the help you guyz have given me this past week. if anyone could help, you’d be my life saverrr!

only for negative, always just “de” and nothing else

I don’t have any fish
not:
I don’t have the fish
I don’t have some fish

le poisson

and
les legumes

I guess

French ew! I just threw up in my mouth a little!

Je n’aime pas LE poisson = I don’t like fish

ils NE mangent PAS DE legumes = they don’t eat vegetables

It’s just a matter of syntax – French is my native language and I honestly can’t explain why it’s one way or the other!

non, je n’aime pas (le) poisson = no, I don’t like fish

in keeping with the negative form:
ils ne mangent (pas de) legumes = they do not eat vegetables

Pas de = no more. It depends upon what you mean. Does the previous sentence have a clue? If you are talking about “the beans”, it is le or son.
Now, if you are fed up with fish, it’s Non, je n’aime pas de poisson.
Keep at the grammar, French is a very precise language.
Bonne Chance.

It’s ‘Je n’aime pas LE poisson!’ Not DE.
You are talking about fish in general, not a certain quantity of fish.
You seem to be confused, so these articles might help:

Je n’aime pas le poisson.
You always use “de” in a negative form :
lls mangent des légumes.
lls ne mangent pas de légumes.

no, because pas is negative, therefore it is de because with negative phrases, u use de.
