3  In this presentation we are going to look at another set of pronouns. To begin with, think of one way of completing each sentence: › I saw _______. › I ate ________. › I drank ______. › I met ________.

4  Did you come up with something similar to these? › I saw Mary. › I ate the broccoli. › I drank a glass of Kool-Aid. › I met your parents.  Whatever you put into the blanks is a direct object.

12 (Indirect Object Pronouns)

13  We’ve seen three types of pronouns so far: › Subject : yo, tú, él… › Direct object : me, te, lo, la…  In this slide show, we are going to look at one more type: indirect objects.

14  Did you say something like: › Bill Gates sent me a million dollars. › The teacher gave you an A. › My parents bought my little sister a used car. › Julia told everyone the big secret.

15  The indirect objects in these sentences are the people who received something: you, me, my little sister, everyone.  The first two objects use pronouns – me, you. Can you guess what the Spanish equivalents are?

16 › My parents bought my little sister a used car. › Julia told everyone the big secret.  The objects can be replaced with the indirect object pronouns – her, them. What are the Spanish equivalents?

17  her > le  them > les  We’ve seen this form before when we looked at gustar.

18  Indirect objects are used together with verbs such as: › Dar (give) › Enviar (send) › Comprar (buy) › Mandar (send) › Decir (tell) › Regalar (give a gift)

19 me = nos = te = os = le = les =  The indirect object pronouns are:

20  Complete each sentence with an appropriate indirect object pronoun. The recipient for each sentence is provided.  [Recipient: me] Mis padres ___ enviaron (sent) $100 para comprar un vestido nuevo.

21  [Recipient: you] ¿ ___ enviaron tus padres dinero también?  What if there is more than one of “you (formal)” ?  ¿ ___ enviaron sus padres dinero también?  Use the “Uds.” form!

22  [Recipient: her]  Diego ___ compró un anillo (ring) a Luisa.

23  [Recipient: us]  La profesora de antropología ___ da mucha tarea.

24  Juan/comprar/un regalo/for you.  Let’s create an example!

25  Sometimes we are uncertain who is receiving the action, it appears ambiguous, so…  We add a prepositional phrase to make it clear who is receiving the action:  Ellos le llamaron ayer.

26  So who did they call yesterday, it could be him, her, or you (formal).  Therefore to make sure we know who is receiving the action we add the clarifier:  Ellos le llamaron a Marco ayer.

27 A mi = A nosotros = A ti = A vosotros = A él/ella = A ellos/ellas =
