A question about articles in french


J'aime les films et hier je suis allé au cinéma.


My friend taught me this sentence since I actually like movies a lot and i go to the movies often.

I just started learning french and i have no idea about its grammar.

But I have some questions about this sentence.

1. Why isn't it "des films"?

2. Why isn't it "un cinéma" or "le cinéma"???


As a Japanese native speaker, I am not good with articles and it seems like the rule of articles in French is a bit different to the one in English.

and my friend couldn't answer these questions because she is also studying French.


If you tell some idea of the way i should think about this or you can explain this to me, that would be great and  i really appreciate it!

Thank you for reading :)

What kind of food people eat in UK (Especially London, Liverpool and Manchester)

Hi, there!

I'm a 24 years old Japanese man currently traveling around Europe.

Finally, I arrived London today(June 24th) and am planning to discover London and visit Liverpool and Manchester.

Since I'm traveling alone and haven't researched about food in UK, I have no idea what to eat.

 

So here are questions for people who live in UK.

What kind of food local people eat in UK and what should I eat as a traveler???

Like fish and chips? Curry??? Roast beef?

I definately do not want to eat at fast food restaurants, but other places are little pricy.

So I am also wondering how much you spend for your lunch and dinner in UK.

 

and if you know any recommendable places to get food in London, Liverpool and Manchester, let me know it would be really helpful!!!

 

Thank you so much.

I've finally decided to go to Europe this May and I need your help!

 

If you know good places to visit, eat and stay or you have any tips for traveling to Europe, please tell me!!

I've never been to Europe. So it would be great if you could tell me some good places in Europe.

 

The countries I would like to go this time are France, Spain, Germany, Italy, England and possibly Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and Austria!

 

If you are living Europe and interested in meeting up, that would be fun too :)

Manchester Derby!!! There are so many fans of Manchester United all over the world and I know people don't like fans who cheer for famous teams such as Real Madrid, Barcelona and United. But I've been a fan of United since 2001 after watching the match of UEFA Champions League final in 1999 against Bayern Munich at Camp Nou. The other moment that made me want to cheer for Manchester United was when Van Nistelrooy (One of the greatest United's forwards) dribbled past about 5 defenders from halfway line and got a goal against Fulham in 2003. Manchester United may not be able to be the champion of Premier League this season. However, we gotta win this Manchester derby!!! Glory glory Man United!!!

Hello from Tokyo!

Hello!! I'm Sho from Tokyo and I'm looking for friends who can help me learn English or European Culture. In exchange for that, I'm more than happy to help you learn Japanese!!!

I'm also interested in some European languages such as French, Spanish, German and Italian.

 

Since I'm new to here, I don't know how much this site can help me to make friends from all over the world. But it would be nice if I can meet new nice friends who want to learn Japanese.

 

Text chatting is nice, but I prefer talk in person or use voice chat tools after we get to know each other better since it's more fun and text chatting won't make my pronunciation better...

Let's do some language exchange with fun!!!

 

BTW, I'm planning to go to Europe!
