Grammar and Pronouns. WHAT?

I’m so confused. So so confused. I started learning France French on the 9th and I’m doing pretty well so far. I’ve started listening to only French music, I look at the lyrics and translate the ones I don’t know while trying to remember and listen for them, I try to think in French, and I do multiple Babbel and Duolingo lessons per day. But there’s a major block in the road and when I imagine making a sentence, it’s always grammatically incorrect or just having a completely different meaning when I translate it on Google. Because of format and pronouns.

How do I know who is saying what and who is referring to who? Me l’ai dit means HE said to ME even when ”he” is placed after me, but when I said “Je le veux” it means IIII want HIM because my pronoun is placed before his? Please make it make sense, how did you learn how to use this? What is even the rule? Again, this is throwing a huge road block in front of my learning.

And as a bonus, when do I add À between words because sometimes it means something and sometimes it’s just a filler. There seem to be so many filler words, so sentences sound like “I am eating of the food”. Can someone explain why? How do I learn this?

▲ 6 r/Hernia

5’4 and 125lbs. I was looking in the mirror tonight and noticed a weird line of what I thought was cellulite, but then it hit me that maybe it’s a hernia. I haven’t felt any particular pain there, it felt squishy like fat, nothing weird, but the look of it worries me. Also if this gives anymore information, I’m currently bloated. Could it just be something else? What could it be? How do I know if it’s a hernia?
