What is 'du badminton' when translated from French to English?

Answer 1

"About Badminton," "of badminton," and "some badminton" are English equivalents of the French phrase du badminton. The pronunciation of the masculine singular phrase -- whose translation depends upon whether du combines the preposition de("about, of") and the masculine singular definite article le("the") or functions as the partitive du ("some") -- will be "dyoo ba-dmeh-to" or "dyoo bad-dmeen-to" depending upon the speaker's birthplace.
