I thought "Ma mère ne parle pas l'anglais" was wrong because "anglais" does not need an article after "parler". Can anybody confirm/correct me/clarify this? Thanks!

Question I heard you're always supposed to place de/des after ne xyz pas/ ne xyz plus/ne xyz jamais.

In negative sentences "de" is used by itself, instead of "du" or "de la" when the object is partitive ("some").
je parle (l') anglais - je ne parle pas (l') anglais
je mange de la soupe - je ne mange pas de soupe
