Questions & Answers about Parle-moi de ton projet avant que nous prenions une décision.
In the imperative (giving orders/requests), the tu form of regular -er verbs drops the final -s:
- tu parles (present indicative)
- Parle ! (imperative)
So:
With the imperative and object pronouns, French uses a hyphen between the verb and the pronoun:
- Parle-moi. – Talk to me.
- Donne-lui le livre. – Give him/her the book.
- Dites-nous la vérité. – Tell us the truth.
This hyphen is obligatory in spelling. Writing Parle moi without a hyphen is incorrect in standard French.
