In negative sentences we only use de?I mean, if I want to express I don't have any pommes, is it "Je n'ai pas de pommes",or "des pommes"? That is to say, when there is a negative sentence, the only partitive article I need to use is de, is that right?

Video above, On vs L'onOn the video, I feel the explanation for "on vs l'on" (minute 6:18) is not applicable. I don't believe this is an example of euphony, because there are occasions that we use qu'on (unlike va-t-il, a clear example of euphony, that is never without a "t"). So, I think in this phrase, the first "on" is indefinite, but in the second part, having a point of reference, it becomes definite. Am I correct on this?
