Modelo Elena, ¿le puedes traer esos libros a mi compañero de cuarto?

Sí, se los traigo. / Sí, se los puedo traer. / Sí, puedo traérselos.

Answer 1

I believe that your best help will come from you attempting to answer the questions. Then I could assess where your help is needed.. My colleague basically taught a whole class and the information she gave you was excellent. I'm just imagining that you have already been taught about double object pronouns and simply need some help but I can't help you without you trying first.

Answer 2

Here is an example with a problem similar to the ones provided along with an explanation:

Question: Elena, ¿me puedes prestar tu lápiz?

Answer:

Sí, te lo puedo prestar. (Here the pronouns are before the conjugated verb and separate.)

Sí, puedo prestártelo. (Here the pronouns are after the infinitive verb and together as one word with the verb.)

To give the correct answer in this case, you will be sure to include both the indirect and direct object pronouns.

As a guide, here are translations for both sets of pronouns.

Direct object pronouns

me (me)

te (you)

lo, la (him, her, it)

nos (us)

los, las (them)

Indirect object pronouns

me (me)

te (you)

le (him, her, it)

nos (us)

les (them)

Keep these things in mind:

1. The direct object is the object or person that receives the action of the verb.
2. The indirect object is the object or person that receives the direct object.
3. The direct object pronoun goes before the indirect object pronoun.
4. A direct object must be present in order for an indirect object to be present.
5. If there is a third person direct object and a third person indirect object, the direct object pronoun will be "se" instead of "lo," "la," "los," and "las."
