  1. Double Object Pronouns

  2. Direct Object & DOP • The direct object is the person or thing receiving the benefit of the action…

  3. Direct Object & DOP • María washes the car. • The “car” is receiving the benefit of being washed

  4. Direct Object & DOP • John buys a gift. • The “gift” is receiving the benefit of being bought.

  5. Direct Object & DOP • Sometimes we change the direct object to a pronoun

  6. Direct Object & DOP • María washes the it. • Now the “it” (still a direct object) is a pronoun

  7. Direct Object & DOP • In Spanish a pronoun must match the gender and number of the noun it is replacing

  8. Direct Object & DOP

  9. Direct Object & DOP • Because “car” in Spanish is masculine and singular change it to “lo” in Spanish

  10. Direct Object & DOP • In Spanish we place the pronoun BEFORE the verb • María lo lava.

  11. Indirect Object & IOP • The Indirect Object is the person or thing receiving the benefit of the direct object

  12. Indirect Object & IOP • John gives me a gift. • “Me” is receiving the gift and is an Indirect Object

  13. Indirect Object & IOP • In Spanish the IOP’s are ALMOST the same as the DOP’s except for the 3rd person

  14. Indirect Object & IOP

  15. Indirect Object & IOP • Like the DOP, the IOP is placed BEFORE the verb • Juan me compra el regalo.

  16. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • When you have both the convention is a little different

  17. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • They are still placed BEFORE verb • IOP first then DOP

  18. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • Here’s where it gets sticky… • If IOP and DOP are both 3rd person, change IOP to se

  19. She gave it to me. • it = DOP • me = IOP

  20. Let’s say the “it” is a gift…(masculine singular) • Ella dio. me lo

  21. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • Sometimes the English uses a prepositional phrase instead of a simple IOP…

  22. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • In that event, change the object of the preposition to an IOP

  23. They bought them for you. • Ellos compraron. te las

  24. My mom will give it to me. • Mi mamá melo dará.

  25. Carlos will wash it for him. • Carlos selo lavará.

  26. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • Because the “it” here is a car (m/s) and “him” is also masculine singular…

  27. DOP’s and IOP’s Together • The IOP would be “le” and the DOP would be “lo”

  28. Practice • The guys gave it to her. (“it” is a car) • Los muchachos selo dio.

  29. Practice • Her mom fills it (the cup=la) for the baby. • Su mamá sela llena al bebé. • (prepositional phrase clarifies the “se”

  30. Practice • Who bought them (sweaters = los) for the twins? • ¿Quién selos compró?

  31. Practice • She bought it (raquet=la) for you (fam/pl) • ¿Quién sela compró?
