Non-abstract nouns in -eurThere is at least on expection--la fleur is feminine. Might be the only one but I think you should add it.

"I don't know what to say."

This exercise only accepts "Je ne sais pas quoi dire" as translation, but I just wanted to confirm that "Je ne sais que dire" is also correct, or is there some difference in meaning between the two that excludes the latter?

How do I search for a sentence structure? or set of words?I used the search facility to look for a) Il y-a and b) emotions ie. frustration However, it didn't take me to a notes page or a section on the brain map. Is there another way?

Pronunciation

Hello!

Would someone tell me the correct way to pronounce the following:

Je voudrais une verre de vin blanc.

I am trying to understand if I should push the "s" of voudrais into the "une".

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.
