He, her, him

The French word lui functions as two different types of pronouns.

Lui is the third person singular masculine and feminine indirect object pronoun.

Par exemple…

Michel lui a donné une barrette.		Michel gave her a barrette.
Anny lui donne un bisou.		Anny is giving him a kiss.

Lui is also the third person singular masculine stressed pronoun. (The feminine is elle.)

Par exemple…

C'est lui qui a acheté la barrette.		He's the one who bought the barrette.
