Bonjour

What if you wanted to say "Give him to me", would that be "Donne-lui-moi"? Or would that also be "Donne-le-moi"?

Does "donne-lui-moi" exist?

Merci

I think it would be the latter, because "he" is a direct object in this construction, so i'm guessing donne-lui-moi doesn't exist, that would mean give to me to him which doesn't make sense.

But i'm not sure, would appreciate confirmation or correction, merci.

Can ignore - no need to reply. It's donne-le-moi and donne-lui-moi doesn't exist. I wish i could delete my original question
