Position of object pronouns with imperatives

In affirmative imperatives direct and indirect object pronouns come immediately after the verb which governs them, and the pronouns me, te become the stressed forms moi, toi:


  • Prends-les!

Take them!

  • Suivez-nous!

Follow us!

  • Arrêtez-les!

Stop them!

  • Ecoutez-moi!

Listen to me!

  • Tais-toi

Shut up!


BUT in negative imperatives direct and indirect object pronouns precede the verb:

  • Ne les suivez pas!

Don't follow them!

  • Ne la mange pas!

Don't eat it!

  • Ne me fais pas rire!

Don't make me laugh!
