Le, la, les as direct object pronouns — practise and choose the right form
Replace a known direct object with le, la or les and place the pronoun correctly before the conjugated verb.
1. Objective
By the end, you will replace a direct object with le, la or les and place it before the verb.
2. I discover
Compare: Je connais Paul. / Je le connais. Which group disappears, and what replaces it?
3. I understand
Le, la and les can replace a known direct object. Je vois Marie → Je la vois. Je prends le bus → Je le prends. J’achète les billets → Je les achète. The pronoun comes before the conjugated verb.
Choose the pronoun from the object being replaced, not from the sentence subject. The direct-object pronoun comes before the verb.
4. Guided practice
5. Independent practice
