- i was told that it is always autour DE (by a french conversation teacher), Is this something that is so commonly used incorrectly that it has become acceptable over time? (in one of your examples, and in others from other sites, it is autour DE LA lune, or autour DU monde.)

en tous cas

Are "en tout cas" and "en tous cas" both acceptable ways of spelling this to mean "in any case". This exercise only accepted the latter, but I thought the former was correct.

Could you use a subjunctive if one said, 'Je ne sais pas si ....'

Guessing that 'Je ne sais pas si ...' is acceptable ? If so, does the same rule apply to use a subjunctive as you would when 'Je ne sais pas que ...' is used ?

When to use definite articles with ne...ni...ni?

I know this has been asked before, but I'm having trouble determining when to use definite articles when talking about things in general. The two examples in the lesson seem to contradict each other:

Je n'aime ni le fromage ni le lait.

Il ne veut ni vin ni eau.

Why is is "le fromage/le lait" in the first example, and simply "vin/eau" in the second one? According to the English translations for each, both sentences seem to refer to the items in general.

Thanks!
