Key learning points
- Closed [eu] sounds like 'deux' or, when open or spelled [œu], sounds like 'coeur'.
- An indirect object pronoun replaces the person, people or thing(s) that the verb action is done to.
- The plural indirect object pronouns are: nous, vous, and leur.
- Unlike direct object pronouns, indirect object pronouns don't change according to the gender of the nouns they replace.
Keywords
Indirect object pronoun - replaces the person, people or thing(s) that the verb action is done to, when the action is to me, for you, to them
Common misconception
There are separate indirect object pronouns in French to replace masculine and feminine nouns.
French indirect object pronouns make no distinction for gender (unlike direct object pronouns). 'Lui' means both '(to) him' and '(to) her'. 'Leur' means '(to) them' and can refer to both masculine and feminine nouns.
Equipment
Speaking task A3 uses dice on the presentation. Teachers may wish to use their own sets of dice in the classroom to allow pairs more freedom to create sentences.
