Indirect object pronouns: me, te, nous, vous Notes # 4 Lui and Leur You have already learned the indirect object pronouns “lui” and “leur” “Lui” is the third person singular indirect object pronoun and means “to him or to her.” “Leur” is the third person plural indirect object pronouns and means “to them”. Remember, indirect object pronouns answer “to whom” or “for whom” the action of the verb is being done. The other indirect object pronouns in the 1st and 2nd person are: Me Nous Te Vous Indirect object pronouns This means that our indirect object chart is: Me Nous Te Vous Lui Leur Ex: Luc me parle= Luc talks to me Ex: Nous lui ressemblons= we ressemble him. Direct object pronouns Remember that our direct object pronouns directly receive the action of the verb. They are: Me Nous Te Vous Le/la Les How do we tell the difference between the two types of pronouns? Look at the function of the pronoun in the sentence. IF the pronoun answers “to whom” or “for whom” the action is being done, it is a indirect object pronoun. Ex: Il me parle.= He speaks to me. If the pronoun receives the action of the verb, it is a direct object pronoun. Ex: Il me voit=He sees me Warning Some verbs always take an indirect object in French even though they take a direct object in English. Look out for téléphoner à and ressembler à
