For each question, choose from the options lettered A- E, the one that most appropriately completes the sentence.Je parle aux élèves. Je parle.

The sentence "Je parle aux élèves" translates to "I speak to the students." In this sentence, "aux élèves" refers to a group of people to whom the speaker is talking, specifically the students.

To complete the phrase "Je parle..." correctly, you need a pronoun that refers back to "aux élèves" (to the students) without repeating the whole phrase.

In French, "aux élèves" is an indirect object. The appropriate pronoun for the indirect object in this case is "leur", which means "to them". Therefore, the sentence should be completed as "Je parle leur", which translates to "I speak to them."

Explanation of Options:

• les - This is a direct object pronoun for "them" (plural). It would be used if the verb required a direct object.


• la - This is a singular direct object pronoun for "her" or "it" (feminine singular). It does not fit our context as we are dealing with plural and indirect reference.


• leur - This is the correct plural indirect object pronoun for "to them," matching the indirect object in the original sentence.
• le - This is a singular direct object pronoun for "him" or "it" (masculine singular). This is not the correct form for an indirect object.

Therefore, the appropriate choice to complete the sentence is "Je parle leur."
