Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

It depends on what you have afterwards. Unlike English, French requires you have articles in front of nouns so where you can go, 'I have children', French would like you to go, 'I have some children' and that's what that « de » is for: it's the partitive article.

#

Now, that article will use « des » because « enfant » is a countable noun as in you can count them (un enfant, deux enfants, trois enfants) but in this context « de » is used because of a rule saying that if an adjective were to be written before the noun, « des » turns into « de ». Mind you, adjectives generally come after nouns but some come before so it's where this rule applies.
