Hi Ayushi,

'La limonade' is the transparent liquid which consists mainly of sugar and has never seen the whiff of a lemon.

'La citronnade' is a lemon-based beverage .

Hope this helps!

Une limonade is like a Sprite or 7-Up soft drink. Un citron pressé can be used in place of citronade. (Alain le Lait)

« For "our parents" (ie. it is my brother and my parents), why do we say "nos parents" instead of "notre parents" since it is the same parents? In the phrase "J'en viens ..." what is the en referring to? It seems superfluous. »
