French Direct Object Pronouns

1. When a direct object precedes a verb conjugated into a compound tense such as the Passé Composé, the past participle has to agree with the direct object.

2. If you're having trouble deciding between direct and indirect objects, the general rule is that if the person or thing is preceded by a preposition, that person is an indirect object. If it's not preceded by a preposition, it is a direct object.

me / m' = ME

te / t' = YOU

le / l' = HIM, IT (MASC)

la / l' = HER, IT (FEM)

nous = US

vous = YOU

les = THEM

Examples:

I eat it (the orange)
=
Je le mange.

He sees her.
=
Il la voit.

I love you.
=
Je t'aime.

You love me.
=
Tu m'aimes.
