Can I say

I left the documents on your desk, take them

Or should I say

Thanks in advance

Best Answer

Of course, you should say:

I left the documents on your desk. Take them.

You need the pronoun them because it refers back to a plural noun which, in this case, is documents (plural nouns represent things that are more than one in number). The pronoun it is used for things that are singular (one in number):

I left the document on your desk. Take it.
