Is du ,de la in (Faire du ,faire de la) is partitive articles or not ?Im wondering if du , de la when goes with faire , is it count as partitive articles ?
This is from the lesson:
In this lesson , it says that You can use faire de followed by la or l' in front of a vowel or mute h, but remember that le and les will contract with de and become du and des.
So to my understanding du , de la in this case is NOT partitive articles but rather the combination of de + le = du , de +la = de la
If my understanding is correct , then in negation , it should be translated to
Je ne fais pas du foot ( de + le remains)
But i encounter some samples on internet like this :
je ne fais pas de football (https://www.reddit.com/r/French/comments/1dh6z0s/why_is_it_je_ne_sais_pas_de_ski_and_not_je_ne/)
Can you help me to understand , thank you
Pourquoi DE ici et pas ‘des’, ‘du’ et ‘des’?
La première partie de ce paragraphe utilise l’imparfait, par exemple adorais, étais, allais, achetait, s’asseyait, étaient ce qui représente des actions qui continuent au passé. Mais soudain le temps change pour les films de Marvel. Quelle est la différence ?
The question was 'are we going out'. Why is the answer on sort and not on va sort
Way too fast to understand!

According to Wordreference, they recommend the word, ombrelle, for the umbrellas found in cocktails. Should this word be accepted?
Hello,
Just curious about Mathieu being 'in a team'. Is that how the french describe team membership? In US we say, 'on a team'.
Merci!
