- When somebody or something receives the action of a verb indirectly, we use me to mean ‘to me’ and te to mean ‘to you’.
- When somebody or something receives the action of a verb indirectly, we use lui to mean ‘to him’ or ‘to her’.
- An [-s] which is normally an SFC will be pronounced when followed by a vowel. This is called liaison.
Keywords
Object pronoun - a pronoun that replaces the object in a sentence
Silent final consonant (SFC) - silent letter (d, s, t, x) at the end of a word
Liaison - the linking of a normally silent final consonant to the beginning of the next word when it starts with a vowel sound
Common misconception
Silent final consonants are always silent.
The liaison rule means that Silent Final Consonants are pronounced when the next word starts with a vowel sound (including silent h).
