Today we're studying indirect object pronouns

to me – me

to you – te, vous

to him – lui (un homme)

to her – lui (une femme)

to it – lui (un objet)

to us – nous

to them – leur

Notice that there is always the word “to” with each pronoun. This is similar to French when you say “à

toi” instead of “te”.

Indirect object pronouns go before the verb in French, but in English, they go after the verb:

Je parle à Jean --> Je lui parle

I'm talking to Jean --> I'm talking to him

More examples:

I threw the ball to Mary --> I threw the ball to her

You're giving money to your friend Tom --> You're giving money to him

He talks to his parents a lot --> He talks to them a lot
