Indirect Objects(IO) and Indirect Object Pronouns (IOP)

Direct Objects:

•This is the object that receives the action of the verb.

•It answers the question “who?” or “what?”

•It can be a person or thing.•Examples:

▫He throws the ball.▫We push Maria towards Bill.▫Ellos me dan la pelota.▫Ustedes comen las pizzas.

Direct Object Pronouns (DOP’s)

Me (me) Nos (us)

Te (you, singular informal) Os (y’all, informal)

Lo, la (you, singular formal) Los, las (you all, formal)

Lo, la (him, her, it) Los, las (them)

Indirect Objects:• The object that tells us where the direct object

(D.O.) is going (sometimes this D.O. is implied).• Answers the question: “to whom?” or “for

whom?”• Usually is a person.• Circle the indirect objects below in the

following examples:▫He throws the ball to María.▫We give the present to them.▫Ellos me dan la pelota a mí.▫Ustedes nos gritan (yell) a nosotros.

IOP

•Like Direct objects, you can replace the Indirect Object with a pronoun.

•UNLIKE Direct Objects, Indirect objects ALWAYS work with a pronoun even if the Indirect Object is explicitly stated. This will seem very repetitive to you but it is necessary.

 

Indirect Object Pronouns (IOP’s)

Me (to me) Nos (to us)

Te (to you, singular informal) Os (to y’all, informal)

Le (to you, singular formal) Les (to you all, formal)

Le (to him, to her, to it) Les (to them)

Location of the DOP and IOP:• If there is one conjugated verb the DOP

and/or IOP must go before the conjugated verb.▫Ustedes me dan los libros.▫Ellos lo leen.

• If there are two verbs working together the DOP and/or IOP can either go before the conjugated verb or be attached to the end of the second verb. Both are correct options.▫Ellos lo necesitan estudiar.▫Ellos necesitan estudiarlo.

• NOTE: With both DOP and IOP, if you place the pronoun at the end of the present participle you must add an accent to the “a” of “ando” or the “e” of “iendo”

Dar (to give) + Decir (to say/tell)•These are 2 irregular verbs that are often used with DO and IO

Dar (to give)

Doy Damos

Das Dais

Da Dan

Da dan

Decir (to say/tell)

Digo Decimos
