G: Personal Pronouns Review
Main article: w:French personal pronouns
Direct Objects
While the subject of a sentence initiates an action (the verb), the direct object is the one that is affected by the action. A direct object pronoun is used to refer to the direct object of a previous sentence: Pierre voit le cambrioleur. Pierre sees the burglar.
Pierre le voit.
Pierre sees him.
The following table shows the various types of direct object pronouns:
French me, m' te, t' le, l'
la, l' nous vous les
English me1
you1 him, it her, it us1 you1 them
Notes:
1 me, te, nous, and vous are also used as indirect objects to mean to me, to you, to us, and to you respectively.
The pronoun form with an apostrophe is used before a vowel.
The direct object pronoun for nous and vous is the same as the subject.
