Please be patient

Our volunteers look into many questions every day; sometimes it takes them a little while to answer.

Pro tip: you can rename the thread title with `.tr <thread name>`

Make it descriptive, including relevant context, but also to the point. This way you improve your chances of getting a more relevant and specific answer.

Unless they're direct object pronouns, it goes after the verb.

#

By the way, « a passer » is not a thing

slender egret
#

Passé*

ebon plover
#

not only that but "passer" really isn't the right verb here

weak shuttle
#

make sure you conjugate both the auxiliary and the past participle correctly

slender egret
#

Sorry I was typing quickly

weak shuttle
#

oh woops I didn't see the inheritance part, yeah that's not correct

ebon plover
#

if you mean leaving something to someone in an inheritance way, the verb would be "léguer"

#

^ Bookmark this site, it's a bilingual dictionary and it's going to help you a lot

Tysm

#

So it would become Ils ça a légué or ils a légué ça?

weak shuttle
#

Again, since « ça » is not an object pronoun like me/te/le/la/lui/nous/vous/les/leur, it's going to be after the verb.

#

Also, « ils » is plural so « avoir » should be conjugated accordingly

#

Also your conjugation of avoir is off

#

Yea

weak shuttle
#

(« a » is for singular third person, « il/elle/on »)

slender egret
#

So it’s ils ont?

weak shuttle
#

yup

slender egret
#

Ah okay

#

So they left it to him ‘Ils ont légué ça

#

De lui?

weak shuttle
#

no, « à lui » is good

#

look at the example in the screenshot I sent

#

« La maison lui a été léguée » can be deconstructed to « La maison a été léguée à elle »

#

because « lui » in this context is « à lui / à elle »

slender egret
#

So I would say Ils ont légué ça à lui?

weak shuttle
#

just as a refresher, « lui » can either be the indirect object pronoun, replacing « à + qqch/qqn au singulier » or the tonic pronoun for « il (him) »

slender egret
#

What’s qqch?

weak shuttle
weak shuttle
#

just shorthand

slender egret
#

Ah dacc merci
