how do you figure out how to determine which one to use De/d'

Bonjour MIchelle,

To help you figure out which one to use, the following applies (directly from the lesson): "when the adjective is placed BEFORE a plural noun, the partitive article des (some) becomes de (or d' in front of a vowel or mute h)"

I would encourage you to take Kwiziq sorter test as it will help our Kwizbot assess your level and therefore create a studyplan fitting your level. You will then be able to access lesson content to your language level and test your knowledge.

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
