Aller á when using pronoun

Question

Le rose va à ma sœur. Pink suits my sister. To say “Pink suits her”. Would it be: Le rose la va.  I base this on the quiz...  Ces chassures nous vont. (Correct). Ces chassures vont á nous. (Incorrect)

Accepted Answer

Hi Celena,
The verb 
aller à quelqu’un = to suit someone
uses indirect pronouns because of the preposition à -

me, te, lui, nous , vous, leur

Cette robe me va bien= This dress really suits me 
Ce pantalon te /vous va bien= These trousers really suit you 
Ces chaussures leur vont bien= These shoes really suit them
Ce costume lui va bien= This suit really suits her/him 
Hope this helps!

Answer

Le rose va à ma sœur. -- Pink suits my sister.Le rose lui va. -- Pink suits her.Remember, lui is the indirect object pronoun. La would be the direct object pronoun.

Answer

In le rose lui va - why don't you need the à?

Answer

Hi Bryony,
The à' is replaced by using the indirect pronoun  and is no longer present in the sentence -
Le rose lui va = Le rose và à elle 
Take a look at this Kwiziq page on indirect pronouns for further explanation and examples.
