Hello,
So If I'm understanding this correctly when the definite article is before a noun it remains when the verb is negative?
il aime le Café et le chocolate.
Il n'aime ni le Café ni le chocolate
But if the indefinite or partitive article is before a noun in an affirmative sentence the article is then removed when negative?
Elle commande de l'eau et du vin.
Elle ne commande ni eau ni vin.
Thanks
Nicole
