De vs des

"beaucoup des chocolatiers" is listed as the correct translation. I thought that if something followed a quantity it became "de". Thanks for clarifying this for me

Bonjour jill,

"Many of the chocolatiers who ...." from the lesson text.

Therefore Beaucoup des (de les - plural) chocolatiers.

I hope that I have correctly understood your query.

Bonne journée
