1 In Lección 5, you learned that a direct object receives the action of the verb directly. In contrast, an indirect object receives the action of the verb indirectly. An indirect object is a noun or pronoun that answers the question to whom or for whom an action is done. In the preceding example, the indirect object answers this question: ¿A quién le presta Roberto cien pesos? To whom does Roberto lend 100 pesos? Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning.

4 Using indirect object pronouns
Spanish speakers commonly use both an indirect object pronoun and the noun to which it refers in the same sentence. This is done to emphasize and clarify to whom the pronoun refers. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

5 Indirect object pronouns are also used without the indirect object noun when the person for whom the action is being done is known. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

6 Indirect object pronouns are usually placed before the conjugated form of the verb. In negative sentences the pronoun is placed between no and the conjugated verb. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

7 When a conjugated verb is followed by an infinitive or the present progressive, the indirect object pronoun may be placed before the conjugated verb or attached to the infinitive or present participle. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

8 Because the indirect object pronouns le and les have multiple meanings, Spanish speakers often clarify to whom the pronouns refer with the preposition a + [pronoun] or a + [noun]. Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.

9 The irregular verb dar (to give), as well as decir, are often used with indirect object pronouns.

10 Use the cues in parentheses to provide the indirect object pronoun for the sentence. The first item has been done for you. Juan _____ quiere dar un regalo. (to Elena) María _____ prepara un café. (for us) Beatriz y Felipe _____ escriben desde (from) Cuba. (to me) Marta y yo _____ compramos unos guantes. (for them) Los vendedores _____ venden ropa. (to you, fam. sing.) La dependienta _____ muestra los guantes. (to us) le Copyright © 2008 Vista Higher Learning. All rights reserved.
