use of de in negationIn the answer "je n'aime pas les sports" I thought de was used in negation rather than le, la, une, etc. Is this totally incorrect? What are the rules for using de rather than le, la, etc.

Partitif article followed by propername

I have the following sentence

Il biot ------ Coca-cola tous les jours.

Here i need to fill it using partitif article, because Coca-cola is a propername i have to use Il boit de Coca-cola tous les jours?

Is this correct. Please correct me if i am wrong.
