🔹 Section A: Direct Object Pronouns

Direct object pronouns replace the direct object of a sentence (the person or thing receiving the action). In Spanish, they are:

| English | Spanish |
|--------|--------|
| me | me |
| you | te |
| him/her/it | lo / la |
| us | nos |
| you (plural) | os / les |
| them | los / las |

Let’s solve each sentence:

1. Rodrigo me compra (el libro)
→ "Rodrigo buys me the book." → The direct object is "el libro", which is replaced by "lo".
✔ Answer: Rodrigo me lo compra.

2. Ellos ___ compran (las manzanas)
→ "They buy them (the apples)." → "las manzanas" = feminine plural → las
✔ Answer: Ellos las compran.

3. La familia ___ va a visitar (la abuela)
→ "The family is going to visit her (grandmother)." → "la abuela" = feminine singular → la
✔ Answer: La familia la va a visitar.

4. Nosotros ___ bebemos (el agua)
→ "We drink it (the water)." → "el agua" = masculine singular → lo
✔ Answer: Nosotros lo bebemos.

→ "The computer writes them (homework and email)." → Both are objects, plural → las
✔ Answer: La computadora las escribe.

6. Luisa ___ cocina (la cena)
→ "Luisa cooks it (dinner)." → "la cena" = feminine singular → la
✔ Answer: Luisa la cocina.

7. Elena ___ visita (su mamá)
→ "Elena visits her (her mom)." → "su mamá" = feminine singular → la
✔ Answer: Elena la visita.

8. Yo ___ leo (el libro)
→ "I read it (the book)." → "el libro" = masculine singular → lo
✔ Answer: Yo lo leo.

🔹 Section B: Indirect Object Pronouns

Indirect object pronouns indicate *to whom* or *for whom* the action is done. They are:

| English | Spanish |
|--------|--------|
| to me | me |
| to you | te |
| to him/her/it | le |
| to us | nos |
| to you (pl.) | os / les |
| to them | les |

Note: "le" and "les" are used for both "him", "her", "it", "them" (singular/plural), but often followed by "a él/ella/ellos" for clarity.

Now let’s solve:

1. Paco ___ compra un libro (a mí)
→ "Paco buys a book for me." → indirect object = me
✔ Answer: Paco me compra un libro.

2. Ellos ___ envían una carta especial (a Juan)
→ "They send a special letter to him." → "Juan" = male → le
✔ Answer: Ellos le envían una carta especial.

3. ___ escribo una carta (a ti)
→ "I write a letter to you." → "a ti" → te
✔ Answer: Te escribo una carta.

4. El médico ___ receta una medicina (a nosotros)
→ "The doctor prescribes medicine to us." → "nosotros" → nos
✔ Answer: El médico nos receta una medicina.

5. Yo ___ doy dinero (a mi hermano)
→ "I give money to my brother." → "mi hermano" = male → le
✔ Answer: Yo le doy dinero.

6. Los estudiantes ___ hacen una pizzería (para usted)
→ "Students make a pizzeria for you." → "usted" → le
✔ Answer: Los estudiantes le hacen una pizzería.

7. Mi ___ compara sus diamantes (a mí)
→ "My [someone] compares their diamonds to me." → "a mí" → me
✔ Answer: Mi ___ me compara sus diamantes.
(Note: This seems grammatically odd — likely should be "Mi tío me compara..." or similar.)

📝 Explanation Recap:

- Direct object pronouns replace the thing being acted upon (e.g., "the book").
- Indirect object pronouns show to whom or for whom the action is done (e.g., "to me", "for him").

💡 Tip: To determine which one to use:
- Ask: "What?" → direct object → use lo, la, los, las
- Ask: "To whom? / For whom?" → indirect object → use me, te, le, nos, os, les
