    Bonjour, Alexa ! I thought I'd let you know that for me, there was a problem with the streaming for most of your explanation of the phrases. Perhaps that's why others asked if the live was on or if it was real...or whatever. I tried to get the point across with "Ne marche pas" and next time I promise to use the entire phrase, Le video ne marche pas. :) Also, please let us know when a support guide is available. (!)

    Du (de le) is used before a masculine noun it is used when you say that you have some of something Je mange du pain (I eat bread) De would be used when you have a specific quantity or using adverbs of quantity (beaucoup, trop, assez, etc..) Je mange cinq tranches de pain (I ate 5 slices of bread) Je mange trop de pain (I ate too much bread) Bonus: use en to replace the noun when using a specific quantity and the topic had already been established Combien des tranches de pain tu avais mangé? (How many slices of bread have you eaten?) J'en mange cinq, J'avais la dalle (I ate 5 of them, I was starving)

    @@bobgade6733 and in terms of i eat vs i am eating, french does not really have a continous action example words ending with -ing to be honest it is safe to say that it is almost treated as continous (I am eating) but can be used as i eat in the context that you say that eat something in particular but does not happen at the moment "oui, je mange de la viande" (yes, I eat meat). Really it comes down to what the other person says or asks "Qu'est que tu manges?" (What are you eating?) "Je mange la viande" (I am eating meat) As oppose to "Tu manges de la viande?" (Do you eat meat?) "Oui, je mange de la viande" (yes I eat meat) Bonus use le to replace objects that are not a person when using reflexive verbs Je le mange (I eat it/I am eating it) If you want to say in a continous action that you are eating Je suis en train de manger. (I am in the process of eating) in the context that you have been interrupted while you were eating. The reason suis was not used in earlier sentence is because manger does not use être as its auxillary verb.
