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.

Both are correct.

Le café is countable, it's a cup of coffee.
Du café is uncountable, it's some coffee

With the idea of it being a repetition, a habit. The uncountable version is more natural, unless it's with someone, and most of the time, you'll prefer an indefinite article over a definite one.

prendre le café is more like about the activity around it, like a break or something. But if you were to say Je vais boire le café to someone, he wouldn't find it weird.
