The Partitive and Expressions of Quantity in French

1. Use the partitive when you want to say "some" or "any". Keep in mind that in English we often omit these words, but in French they must be used. (ex. Do you have some bananas? Do you have any bananas? Do you have bananas? all 3 = Tu as des bananes?)

​

2. After ne...pas, du/de la/de l'/des become de/d'​. (ex. Je n'ai pas de bananes. = I don't have any bananas. I don't have some bananas. I don't have bananas.)

Combien de ... ? = How many ...?​

​These expressions use only "de" (not de la/du/de l'/des)
