  1. Los Pronombres Brian Xu

  2. Indirect Object Pronouns English • Me (me) • Te (you) • Le (him, her, you-formal) • Nos (us) • Os (you guys – Spain) • Les (them, you guys)

  3. Indirect Object Pronouns Spanish • Me (yo) • Te (tú) • Le (él, ella, usted) • Nos (nosotros, nosotras) • Os (vosotros, vosotras) • Les (ellos, ellas, ustedes)

  4. Indirect Object Pronouns Usage • Indirect Object tells where Direct Object is going • Answers questions – “to whom?” or “for whom” • IOP comes immediately before conjugated verb • Example: Juan me compra un regalo. • Juan buys me a gift • Me compra – buys (for) me

  5. Indirect Object Pronouns Le and Les • Le and les are ambiguous when taken out of context because they can mean different things • Example: Ella le escribe una carta • It can mean 3 different things – she writes him a letter, she writes her a letter, she writes you a letter • So we can add a prepositional phrase for clarity: • Ella le escribe a Juan una carta

  6. Indirect object pronouns Prepositional Phrases Sometimes a prepositional phrase is added for emphasis Juan me da a mí el dinero Juan gives me the money “Juan me da el dinero” is not ambiguous, so “a mí” is used only for emphasis

  7. Direct Object Pronouns English Me (me) Te (you) Lo, la (him, her, you-formal) Nos (us) Os (you guys – Spain) Los, las (them, you guys)

  8. Direct Object Pronouns Spanish • Me (yo) • Te (tú) • Lo, la (él, ella, usted) • Nos (nosotros, nosotras) • Os (vosotros, vosotras) • Los, las (ellos, ellas, ustedes)

  9. Direct Object Pronouns Usage • The direct object is the thing that directly receives the action of the verb • Answers “what?” or “whom?” • Comes directly before the conjugated verb • Example: Juan la tiene • Juan has it

  10. Direct Object Pronouns Usage (continued) • You replace the direct object with a pronoun usually because saying the direct object over and over is getting redundant • Example: Me gusta la sopa. La sopa es deliciosa. Como la sopa • Because “la sopa” is getting repetitive, you can change the last phrase to “La como” • DOP can also be a person • Example: I know you • Te conozco

  11. Direct Object Pronouns Attachment • In a sentence with two verbs, you can also attach the DOP to the infinitive • Both attaching and putting the DOP before the verb mean the same thing • Example: Lo quiero ver (I want to see it) • Quiero verlo

  12. Reflexive Pronouns English • Me (me) • Te (you) • Se (him, her, you-formal) • Nos (us) • Os (you guys – Spain) • Se (them, you guys)

  13. Reflexive Pronouns Spanish • Me (yo) • Te (tú) • Se (él, ella, usted) • Nos (nosotros, nosotras) • Os (vosotros, vosotras) • Se (ellos, ellas, ustedes)

  14. Reflexive Pronouns Usage Used when the subject is acting on itself Typically precedes verb or attaches to infinitive Example: MelavoOR lavarme I clean myself
