1. “Y” AND “EN” BY BROOKE HOLMES

3. PRONOUN “EN” “En” replaces phrases beginning with “De”.

4. PRONOUN “EN” An example in English would be:- An example in English would be:- I have a lot of clothes. In everyday English we would not say this, we would convert it into: I have a lot of them.

5. PRONOUN “EN” This too happens in French:-This too happens in French:- Instead of saying: J’ai beaucoup de vêtements. We would say: J’en ai beaucoup. “En” translates to them and slips in between “J” and “Ai”

6. PRONOUN “EN” Other examples in French include:-Other examples in French include:- Elle a trop de livres. This can then be changed into: Elle en a trop.

7. PRONOUN > Elle a dix chats.Elle a dix chats. Changing the 10 cats into a pronoun would make it, She had 10 of them: Elle en a dix.

9. PRONOUN “Y” “Y” replaces a place. In English we replace the place with THERE.

10. An example where this is used in English would be: I am going to the Bank. Rather than saying this, in everyday English we would say: I am going there.

11. PRONOUN “Y” In French they change it like this: Je vais à la banque. – meaning I am going to the bank. This would then be replaced with there (y), to change it into I am going there. J’y vais.

12. PRONOUN “Y” A second example of using the pronoun “Y” is:- Je vais à New York. New York then being replaced by the correct pronoun, Y, makes it again: J’y vais.

13. Another example of using the pronoun “Y” is:-Another example of using the pronoun “Y” is:- On est dans le salon. This then being replaced with the pronoun “Y” turns it into – On y est.

14. PRONOUNS “Y” AND “EN” To summarise, you use the pronoun “En” to replace phrases introduced by “De”. In English it is translated into “Of it”, “Of them”, “From it”, “From them”, “Some”, or “Any”. And you use the pronoun “Y” to replace places. In English, this is translated into “There”.
