Des pommes ?Hi there, another question from me about articles. In the example above, "J'aime seulement les pommes", does this not refer to "the apples" versus apples in general. I thought one would use "des pommes" in this case. Merci, Kathy

Pire or plus mauvais?I don't think the examples given have explained the difference between these two forms. I think I read somewhere that pire was more for abstract things. Is this right? What is the difference between an accent and results?

ArticlesNot to belabour Stuart's question but, does this mean that technically "Je n'aime ni le fromage ni le lait." means "I like neither the cheese nor the milk.", referring to a specific cheese and milk versus categorically.

Tout va bien chez vousHi - just a bit confused on this one. I noticed we have used va and not allez, but we have used vous and not toi (ie va with toi, and allez with vous). Is that because "va" is referring to "Tout" being masculine singular and not the person we are talking to? ie - can you say "tout va bien chez toi" to someone familiar or is this a fixed expression..??

Partir vs quitterI'm a bit unsure about the difference between these two. If you leave the job then it's quitter, but if you leave Paris, perhaps for good but perhaps not are both possible?
