2 Direct Object Pronouns

3 Direct Objects Diagram each part of these English sentences: I want that skirt. You bought some shoes. What is the subject and verb?

4 I – subject want-verb You- subject Bought-verb What is “that skirt” and “some shoes”?

5 That skirt and some shoes are called direct objects. Direct objects in Spanish function the same as in English (except in placement”). They answer the questions “what” or “whom”.

6 If we hear the question “Who saw the movie?” and someone answers “She saw it”, we understand that “it” refers to the noun the movie. “It” clearly answers the question “What did she see?”

7 Direct Object Pronouns Direct object pronouns take the place of the direct object in a sentence. For example:

8 Direct Object Pronouns Instead of saying, “I want that skirt,” you can say, “I want it.” The word “it” takes the place of the word “skirt.”

9 Direct Object Pronouns (Spanish) me(me) te(you) lo(him or it) la(her or it) nos(us) os (you all inf.) los (them, you all) las (them, you all)

10 Placement of Direct Object Pronouns Direct Object Pronouns, me, te, lo, la, nos, los and las are placed either before a conjugated verb or attached to the end of an infinitive.

11 Before the Conjugated Verb: Cuándo compraste la falda? La compré hace cinco días.

12 Before the Conjugated Verb Isabel, tienes mi suéter? No, no lo tengo.

13 Before the Conjugated Verb Compras esos pantalones? No, no los compro.

14 Before the verb or after the infinitive: Before the verb: Quieres comprar esa falda? Sí, la quiero comprar. After the infinitive: Quieres comprar esa falda? Si, quiero comprarla.

15 Direct Object Pronouns When the pronoun replaces both a masculine and a feminine dircect object noun, we use los. For example:

16 Direct Object Pronouns Cuándo compraste la falda y el vestido? Los compré el sábado.
