il

Answer 2

There are many, many possible translations of "it" into French. It completely depends on the context. Some examples: It's a bird! / C'est un oiseau ! I'm doing it. / Je le fais. OR Je fais ça. OR Je fais cela. I need it. / J'en ai besoin.

I like this salad, it's really good. / J'aime cette salade, elle est très bonne. It's bad to drink poison. / Ilest mauvais de boire du poison. (or, colloquially, c'est mauvais de boire du poison.) There are other possibilities, such as lui, celui-ci, celui-là, celle...

If you just want to make a quick and dirty translation, your best bet is "ça" for "it" or "c'est" for "it is"
