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.

Bad hint?In today's A2 writing exercise: https://progress.lawlessfrench.com/my-languages/french/exercises/overview/160?utm_source=blk&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=msg_448551You give the hint: Use "faire la connaissance de" = to get acquainted with. But it is counted wrong. I wrote "et ses griffes ont deja fait la connaissance de notre canape. And "la" and "de" are crossed out and "de" replaced with "avec". -- Either the hint is wrong, our the correction is wrong. N'est-ce pas?

fruit singular/plural

This was fun, made me hungry.

Why are the fruit in : "les sorbets au citron et à la fraise" singular, while in the pie "aux framboises" they are plural?

Correction method problemOn the "Une petite soeur très curieuse" test I was given a 4 correct and 6 nearly correct, but there was no differnce in my answers and the correct ones. I'm wondering if it is something to do with different keyboards. I notice when I type oe, it also corrects that as on your keyboard they are nearly attached together...?
