Bernard l'envoie à elle - why is this incorrect?
Just wanted to check why "Bernard l'envoie à elle" was incorrect to say Bernard sent something to her - is it that "lui" is mandatory in this case?
This question relates to:French lesson "Position of Double Pronouns in French - Direct Object Pronoun + Indirect Object Pronoun"

Bonjour Jason !
Yes, with ditransitive verbs, you need to use both indirect and direct object pronouns.
Have a look at our glossary article on (di)transitive verbs:

I hope that's helpful!
Bonne Année !
