Using Pronoun EN, Exercises
1. As we already mentioned before, the pronoun EN is used to replace the partitive article plus a noun. In this case en often means some or any. En always precedes the verb.
Tu prends du sucre? - Do you take sugar?
Non, je n' en prends pas. - No, I don't take any.
Avez-vous besoin de pain? - Do you need some bread?
Oui, j' en ai besoin. - Yes, I need some.
If en replaces nouns used with expressions of quantity or numbers, en is translated depending on the context and does not have a fixed English equivalent.
As-tu des frères? - Do you have brothers?
Oui, j' en ai deux. - Yes, I have two (brothers).
Achètes-tu des asperges? - Are you buying any asparagus?
Oui, j' en achète une botte. - Yes, I am buying a bunch.
