Ok let's clear this up...I am constantly getting the wrong one...what is the rule...please...Javio

I know this has been asked before, but I'm having trouble determining when to use definite articles when talking about things in general. The two examples in the lesson seem to contradict each other:

Je n'aime ni le fromage ni le lait.

Il ne veut ni vin ni eau.

Why is is "le fromage/le lait" in the first example, and simply "vin/eau" in the second one? According to the English translations for each, both sentences seem to refer to the items in general.

Thanks!

I'm confused when to use penser à and when to use penser de, and why you would say "la fille à laquelle je pense" instead of "la fille dont je pense" 

"For pronunciation reasons, you will use en with masculine countries starting with a vowel" yet États-Unis is using aux. Is that only because it is plural?

This might dive into various grammatical topics, but I can't seem to figure out what rules this sentence should follow:

Est-ce que c'est possible de réserver une table?
Est-il possible de réserver une table?

Which one is in this case grammatically correct and why? Could you both use them in different instances?

Quelle est ton nationalite ou quelle est ta nationalite?

ton pour M et ta pour F. c'est correct
