object pronouns
Les pronoms compléments: me, te, nous, vous
French has seven direct object pronouns — and three more when you count the forms with an apostrophe. Here are the 3 direct object pronouns and their English equivalents that we will look at in this Leçon.
me (m’ in front of a vowel or mute -h) (me) te (t’ in front of a vowel or mute -h) (you [singular informal]) nous (us) vous (you [singular formal or plural informal and formal]) Because it (the object pronoun) replaces a noun, a pronoun takes the appearance of the noun as much as possible, kind of like a chameleon! The pronoun must match the noun in gender and number. For example: (Compare the "what" is being replaced from the sentence on the left to the sentence on the right.) Practice:
1. Take notes p. 218 2. Copy vocabulaire: Rapports et service s personnels p. 219 3. Watch video (right) - Take notes 4. Create 4 sentences to share in class (2 affirmative sentences and two negative sentences). 5. Do exercise 3 page 220. |

Les pronoms me, te, nous, vous à l'impératif
The French pronouns are always placed BEFORE the verb, whether the verb is in présent, imparfait or passé composé.
There are only two exceptions : (we will look at ONLY at ONE for now): In the affirmative command form, the pronouns are placed after the verb. Affirmative Command Forms with Pronouns
The pronoun, preceded by a dash, goes after the verb. Invite-moi au cinéma. Invite me to the movies. Donne-nous un verre de soda. Give us a cup of soda. Negative Command Forms with Pronouns The pronoun goes after the Ne (N’) and before the verb. Ne m'invite pas au cinéma. Don't invite me to the movies. Ne nous donne pas un verre de soda. Don't give us a cup of soda. |
Practice:

les pronoms compléments à l'infintif
|
Practice:
1. LISTEN ONLY until 2:40 - While listening you will HEAR how the DIRECT OBJECT PRONOMS are used in sentences. 2. After 2:40: Take NOTES! and do the activity at the end of the video! 3. Take notes from page 222 also. 4. Where does the COD (complément d’object direct) belong when there are TWO VERBS? 5. Do exercise 6 page 221. Before you move on PLEASE look at the J'AI COMPRIS and make sure you COMPRENDS before you continue! Please see Mme Beck if you are having difficulties. |
J'AI COMPRIS
The COD (complément d’object direct): All it means is the person or thing that receives the action of a verb in a sentence.
Example “Joseph eats the cake.” “Joseph” is the subject because he is the one doing the action and “the cake” is the object because it is what is being eaten.
French has a similar pattern, it is easy to pick out what word is the object. Most sentences in both languages are constructed in the order of Subject-Verb-Object.
Just like in English, we can substitute the objects of a sentence with pronouns, so that we say “Joseph eats it.” although the word “cake” must have been mentioned before to be understood. In French, of course, the direct object pronouns must agree in gender and number!
The main difference between French and English is that when you substitute a COD pronoun for a direct object noun, the order in French changes to Subject-Object-Verb.
Example: I LOVE YOU - JE T'AIME
Example “Joseph eats the cake.” “Joseph” is the subject because he is the one doing the action and “the cake” is the object because it is what is being eaten.

Pont des ArtsIn August 2014, the Paris Mayor's Office began to say publicly that they wanted to encourage tourists to take "selfies" instead of leaving love locks, when they launched the "Love Without Locks" campaign and social media hashtag. The web site states: "Our bridges can no longer withstand your gestures of love. Set them free by declaring your love with #lovewithoutlocks." With the high tourist season in full swing, more than 50% of the panels on the Pont des Arts had to be boarded over with plywood because the weight of the locks (estimated by the city to be 700 kg per panel) was creating the risk of more panels collapsing.
On 18 September 2014, the City Hall of Paris replaced three panels of this bridge with a special glass as an experiment as they search for alternative materials for the bridge where locks cannot be attached. From 1 June 2015, city council workmen from Paris started to cut down all the locks after years of complaints from locals. Health and Safety officials said "the romantic gestures cause long term Heritage degradation and danger to visitors". As of 2015, over a million locks were placed, weighing approximately 45 tons. |
Savoir:
The Pont des Arts or Passerelle des Arts is a pedestrian bridge in Paris which crosses the River Seine. It links the Institut de France and the central square (cour carrée) of the Palais du Louvre, (which had been termed the "Palais des Arts" under the First French Empire). Between 1802 and 1804, under the reign of Napoleon I, a nine-arch metallic bridge for pedestrians was constructed at the location of the present day Pont des Arts: this was the first metal bridge in Paris. The engineers Louis-Alexandre de Cessart and Jacques Dillon initially conceived of a bridge which would resemble a suspended garden, with trees, banks of flowers, and benches. On March 17, 1975, the French Ministry of Culture listed the Pont des Arts as a national historic monument. Since late 2008, tourists have taken to attaching padlocks (love locks) with their first names written or engraved on them to the railing or the grate on the side of the bridge, then throwing the key into the Seine river below, as a romantic gesture. This gesture is said to represent a couple's committed love. |
