So you were born, and that was a good day
Someday you'll die, and that is a shame
But somewhere in the between was a life of which we all dream
And nothing and no one will ever take that away

You should usually put it into context and translate it. Like... Quand on parle dont le topique est le français...

To replace sentences with the preposition de. For example:

L'argent dont j'ai besoin

Where the original phrase is "J'ai besoin d'argent".

It mostly translates as "which/that" and in some cases "who/whom," but if the verb after it takes the preposition de, you should use dont.

More info: http://french.about.com/library/weekly/aa092799.htm

Hope that's a little clearer.

That wasn't a question... but if you need to know how to say "don't"... it's "ne faire pas".

i need to know when to use the pronom relatif "dont". i know it replaces "de" but... that doesn't help me any. i feel like i could just use "qui" or "que" anywhere for these exercises i'm working on.

She's talking about the relative pronoun 'dont', not the English word "don't."
