🔹 me / her / us / it

me = لي / إياي  |  her = لها / إياها (مؤنث)  |  us = لنا / إيانا  |  it = له / لها (لغير العاقل)

✅ Object Pronouns – القاعدة
• نستخدم object pronouns لتحل محل الاسم الذي يقع عليه فعل الفاعل (مفعول به).
• تأتي بعد الفعل أو بعد حرف الجر (to, for, with, at).
• القائمة: me, you, him, her, it, us, them.
• مثال: "I see her." (أراها) – "Talk to them." (تحدث معهم)

🎙️ 7. Pronunciation Focus – short /ɪ/ sound (as in “him”, “give”, “it”)

This sound is quick and relaxed. Practice these key object pronoun words:

🔊 him 🔊 it 🔊 give 🔊 with 🔊 this

Sentence to practice: “Give it to him with care.”

💡 Extra practice: "I saw him at the cinema." – "She helped us fix it."
🎯 Tip: /ɪ/ is shorter and more relaxed than /i:/ (like “see”). Compare: “him” vs “he’s”.
