Salut!

"Tu aimes la pizza?" is not "Do you like the pizza?". Be careful of the "le"before pizza!

I opened the discussion page, and some people had the same question in their minds. And someone taught us a tip there! So, let me share it.

In French, the definite article (le/la) is used a lot more than it's used in English. When speaking of nouns as a general concept, you will include the article just as you include it when you are referring to a specific instance of the nouns.
