  11. Indirectobject pronouns Replaces a indirect object. This is often shown by using the word ‘to’ in English, and with infinitives which are followed by ‘à’ in French. Je lui parle = I am speaking to him to speak to = parler à to phone = téléphoner à Je lui téléphone = I am phoning her to give to = donner à Je leur donne le cadeau = I am giving them the present Note that we sometimes miss out the word ‘to’ in English; this must be translated by the indirect object pronoun in French. Indirect and direct object pronouns are the same, apart from the ‘il/elle’ and ‘ils/elles’ forms.

  12. THE PRONOUN “Y” AND “EN”

  13. Pronoun Y • The equivalent of “there” in English. • Use to replace thing or places. • Use to replace names of places introduced by prepositions of place such as à, en, dans, chez, sous, sur, etc. • May also replace à + noun; designating a thing. • Like other pronouns, y is placed before the verb, except in affirmative commands.

  14. Example of the Pronoun “Y” 1. Tu vas souvent à la plage? - Oui, j’y vais souvent en été. 2. Tu es allé en France? - Oui, J’y suis allé. 3. Ils vont en ville. - Ils y vont.

  18. EN • En replaces a previously mentioned noun followed by de (du, des, de la, de l’) Ex. Il arrive de Paris./Il en arrive. • If de + noun represents a thing, then that part of the sentence can be replaced by en. Ex. Je doute de votre sincérité./J’en doute.

Instead, retain the “de” and add the appropriate disjunctive pronoun, except if the partitive is used. • Disjunctive pronoun – (moi, toi, lui, elle, soi, nous, vous, eux, elles) Ex. Paul s’approchedel’agent./Paul s’approache de lui. Ex. Je parledemonamie./Je parled’elle.
