“du” and “de la” …
“du” and “de la” can also mean “some” when pairing it with a liquid or any collective noun (any liquid, or mud, sand, etc).

Thus, instead of saying “des thes”, which would be the equivalent of saying “some teas” in english (and thus not correct), you would say “du the” (some tea).

Or du lait, de l’eau, du pain (you wouldn’t normally say “some breads”, right?)

Pas toujours. Dans …
Pas toujours. Dans quelques regions du Quebec, on prononce les “r” juste comme en France (uvulaire) – en fait, la plupart des quebecois plus jeunes utilisent le “r” uvulaire

But you chose …
But you chose third-group verbs (“boire”, “prendre”, “lire”…), and this group isn’t the easiest one!
It’s better to begin with first group verbs conjugations…

Tea = Le thé

But …
Tea = Le thé

But when we say that in a sentence, we always use “du” when it follows a verb. For instance :

Je mange DU pain (I’m eating bread)
Je bois DU lait (I’m drinking milk)

You see ?

Can you please explain why tea is ‘du the’ and not just ‘le the’ ?…is this saying I drink ‘of the tea’ or ‘from the tea’, that’s a bit strange!

You don’t have to …
You don’t have to be able to conjugate all the verbs to speak French…just cheat and say “Je vais moudre le sel”…voila….I’m going to grind the salt….or better yet “Je viens de moudre le sel.” I just ground the salt.

Good luck to all people who want to learn French.
French conjugaison is so hard, many verbs like moudre, coudre are impossible to conjugate in some tenses.

French conjugaison …
French conjugaison is not really simple ^^

Ask French kids, they will tell that you that they fear French class ’cause they know they will have problem to write correctly, and they don’t know enought their verbs…

Your video is great, your accent sounds good ! Keep on !

"snowboard" has no translation into Spanish, and is used as such.

Yo hago snowboard
Tu haces snowboard
El hace snowboard
Nosotros hacemos snowboard
Vosotros hacéis snowboard
Ellos hacen snowboard

As you can see, in Spanish it is a noun, referring to either the snowboard as a board, or the sport itself. It needs the helping verb.
