How It Works

Le means with and also appears in liking and ownership expressions. Before the article its form is leis: leis an múinteoir.

Le can connect someone with a companion or take part in conventional liking and ownership frames. Before the definite article use leis an or leis na. The form leis can also mean with him without a following article, so parse its whole phrase.
