When is 'de' required after ne...pas?Les filles jouent au foot? Non, elles ne jouent pas au foot. Why isn't it - ....pas de foot? I can't get my head around when de is required after pas and when it is not. Is there a lesson that explains this?

Are there quizzes or lessons specifically designed to expand one's vocabulary?Let me begin by saying that I'm thrilled with Kwiziq so far—my French grammar is improving at a remarkable rate. However, I was wondering whether there were any quizzes or lessons designed with the sole purpose of expanding ones vocabulary around specific subject areas (as oppose to quizzes improving one's understanding of grammatical constructions). Improving my grammar is my top priority, nevertheless it would sometime be nice to dip into, say, business or scientific terminology and then be tested accordingly.

au coin de by / nearBonjour Aurélie ou Gruff, Alors, j'ai appris qu' «au coin de» traduit comme «at the corner of», mais dans cette leçon-ci la traduction est «by/near». Je ne peux pas trouver cette traduction dans le Collins-Robert. Pourriez-vous me donner l'explication? Merci, Ron

English grammr? Better written as "He has a brother, he doesn't have a sister."I think the translation would be better as "He has a sister, he doesn't have a brother."
