Here we meet for the first time pronoun en. In the first sentence, it replaces the indefinite article and the noun. We could translate it with some.
J’en ai (= des tickets de métro).
In the second sentence, it could be translated by one of them. Je t’en donne un (= un des tickets de métro)
In the third sentence, it replaces the partitive article and the noun. We could translate it by some. Il y en a toujours beaucoup le samedi (= du monde).
It may also replace other words or expressions. We’ll see that later. |
