Double Object Pronouns • This is grammar essential applies when you are using a direct object pronoun and an indirect object pronoun in the same sentence with the same verb phrase. • If the above is not in your sentence, then this does not apply.
Double object pronoun • When using both object pronouns, the indirect always comes before the direct. • Usually they happen together as a unit.
Double object pronouns • When doubling the pronouns, you can never have l-l together in the grouping. • Les lo can never happen. • If it is l-l, the first indirect object changes to “se” to avoid the repetition of the l sound. • Les lo would be se lo.
Double object pronoun • He gave Juana the flowers. • He gave her them. • Él le las da. • Él se las da. If the l-l, sound is not present, do nothing with the se.

Double object pronoun • When you have a double object pronoun and a verb phrase, you can attach them. • When you attach them, you double them up with the indirect object pronoun first and the direct object pronoun second. • When you attach 2 object pronouns, you need to add an accent to the infinitive in the syllable that would normally carry the stress (usually the syllable before the infinitive ending).
Double Object Pronoun • He is going to give Juana the flowers. • He is going to give her them. • Él va a dárlelas. • Él va a dárselas.
