I had difficulty with translating the negitive feelings. "i don't like" "hate" in

Question

Ex- "Je n'aime pas les foules et je déteste danser" from "I don't like crowds and I hate dancing"I came up with "Je deteste les foules et je hate danser"
Some vernacular examples would help.

Bonjour Robert,
To like = aimer  -> I don't like = Je n'aime pas
As there's a negation in the English sentence, the expected answer will include a negation too (especially as it is an A1 exercise). Also, "détester" is far stronger than "not liking [something]".
To hate = détester  -> I hate = Je déteste
I took a look at your answer for this snippet, which was "je hait dancer" -> je hais danser
You are correct that "haïr" is a correct alternative to use for "to hate". It's now been added as well as "avoir horreur de".

I hope this is helpful.
Bonne journée !
