Indirect object Pronouns worksheet - Free Printable

Let’s go through each sentence one by one. We need to fill in the blank with the correct indirect object pronoun that matches who is receiving the action (the “to whom” part).

We’ll use this chart as our guide:

- Me → to me
- Te → to you (informal)
- Le → to him / her / you (formal)
- Nos → to us
- Os → to you all (Spain, informal)
- Les → to them / you all (formal or Latin America)

Now let’s solve each question:

---

1. ¿Su papá les da dinero a Uds.? Sí, nuestro padre ______ da dinero a nosotros.
→ “a nosotros” = to us → nos

2. ¿Los chicos dicen la verdad a sus padres? No, no ______ dicen la verdad a sus padres.
→ “a sus padres” = to them → les

3. ¿Pedro cocina la cena a vosotros? Sí, Pedro ______ cocina la cena a vosotros.
→ “a vosotros” = to you all (Spain) → os

4. ¿Llamas a tus abuelitos? Sí, ______ llamo todos los días.
→ “a tus abuelitos” = to them → los? Wait — but we’re using *indirect* object pronouns here. Actually, “llamar a alguien” uses direct object… BUT the instruction says “pronombres indirecto”, and the structure implies it’s treating “abuelitos” as recipients? Hmm — actually, in standard Spanish, “llamar” takes a direct object. But since the worksheet is focused on indirect objects, maybe they mean “I call them [for someone else]”? That doesn’t fit. Let’s look at context: The answer should match “a tus abuelitos” — if we treat it as indirect (maybe meaning “I call them for myself?”), but that’s not right. Actually, looking at other questions, sometimes they mix up direct/indirect. But wait — question 4 says “Sí, ______ llamo todos los días.” If it’s “I call them every day,” it should be direct object “los”. But the title is “Indirect Object Pronouns”. Maybe it’s a trick? Or perhaps it’s meant to be “I call them [on behalf of someone]”? Not likely. Let’s check similar ones.

Wait — look at #5: “¿Usted escribe textos a su esposa? Sí, ________ escribo textos.” → “a su esposa” = to her → le. So they are treating “escribir a alguien” as indirect object. Similarly, “llamar a alguien” can sometimes be treated as indirect in some contexts? Actually, no — “llamar” is usually direct. But since this worksheet is about indirect objects, and the pattern is matching the prepositional phrase (“a + person”) to the pronoun, we’ll follow that logic even if grammatically debatable.

So for #4: “a tus abuelitos” → to them → les

But wait — “tus abuelitos” is plural, so “les” is correct for indirect object.

Actually, let’s double-check with reliable grammar: In Spanish, verbs like “dar”, “decir”, “cocinar para”, “escribir a”, “regalar”, etc., take indirect objects when there’s a recipient. “Llamar” typically does not — it’s direct. But since the worksheet includes it under indirect objects, and the structure matches others, we’ll go with les.

Alternatively, maybe it’s a mistake? But let’s proceed consistently.

Looking ahead: #6: “da agua a su perro” → “le” (to him/her/it) — animals can take “le” informally.

So for consistency, we’ll treat any “a + person/animal” as triggering an indirect object pronoun.

So #4: “a tus abuelitos” → les

But wait — “tus abuelitos” is “your grandparents” — plural — so “les” is correct.

Actually, I think I made a mistake earlier. Let me reevaluate based on standard usage taught in schools for these exercises.

In many textbooks, for simplicity, they teach that if there’s “a + person”, use indirect object pronoun. Even if technically it might be direct. So we’ll follow that.

So:

4. “a tus abuelitos” → to them → les

But hold on — “llamar” is transitive and usually direct. However, in some dialects or contexts, it might be used differently. Given the worksheet’s focus, let’s assume they want les.

Wait — let’s look at #8: “Yo ______ compro flores a Mariana.” → “a Mariana” = to her → le

Similarly, #9: “Jacob ______ muestra el cuaderno a su mamá.” → “a su mamá” = to her → le

So yes, they are treating “a + person” as indirect object regardless of verb.

So back to #4: “Sí, ______ llamo todos los días.” → referring to “a tus abuelitos” → to them → les

But “llamo” is first person singular — “I call them” — if it were direct, it would be “los”, but since the worksheet is about indirect, and they have “a tus abuelitos”, we’ll put les.

Actually, I recall now — in some curricula, they simplify and say any “a + person” after the verb gets an indirect object pronoun. So we’ll go with that.

Proceeding:

5. ¿Usted escribe textos a su esposa? Sí, ________ escribo textos.
→ “a su esposa” = to her → le

6. ¿Mariana da agua a su perro? Sí, Mariana ______ da agua.
→ “a su perro” = to him (animal) → le (commonly used for pets)

7. ¿Tus abuelos te regalan dinero? Sí, mis abuelos ______ regalan dinero a mí.
→ “a mí” = to me → me

8. Yo ______ compro flores a Mariana.
→ “a Mariana” = to her → le

9. Jacob ______ muestra el cuaderno a su mamá.
→ “a su mamá” = to her → le

10. Harrison ______ come la comida a su amigo.
→ “a su amigo” = to him → le

11. ¿Verónica te ayuda con tu tarea? Sí, Verónica ______ ayuda con mi tarea a mí.
→ “a mí” = to me → me

12. ¿Ana vende chicles a vosotros? No, Ana no ______ vende chicles a vosotros.
→ “a vosotros” = to you all → os

13. ¿Le habla Makenna a su mascota? Sí, Makenna ______ habla a su caballo.
→ “a su caballo” = to him (animal) → le

14. ¿Tu papá te compra el coche nuevo? Sí, mi papá ______ compra el coche nuevo a mí.
→ “a mí” = to me → me

15. Laura ______ copia la tarea a Lucas.
→ “a Lucas” = to him → le

16. Rolando ______ hace el trabajo de ciencias a Ramiro y Carmen.
→ “a Ramiro y Carmen” = to them → les

17. La madre ______ apaga la televisión a mi hermano.
→ “a mi hermano” = to him → le

18. Arturo ______ compra un carro. (a ti)
→ “a ti” = to you → te

19. Los clientes del restaurante ______ dan propina al mesero.
→ “al mesero” = to him → le

20. Ellos ______ venden el carro al señor.
→ “al señor” = to him → le

Wait — let’s verify a few tricky ones.

For #4: “¿Llamas a tus abuelitos? Sí, ______ llamo todos los días.”
If we strictly follow indirect object rules, “llamar” doesn’t take an indirect object — it’s direct. But since the worksheet is titled “Indirect Object Pronouns” and all other items use “a + person” to trigger indirect pronoun, and given that in some teaching materials they oversimplify, I think they expect les here. However, upon second thought, in standard Spanish, you wouldn’t say “les llamo” for “I call them” — it should be “los llamo”. But since this is a worksheet specifically for indirect objects, and the instruction is to complete with indirect pronouns, perhaps they intend for us to ignore the verb type and just match the “a + person” part.

To confirm, let’s see if there’s any item where the verb clearly requires direct object but they still ask for indirect — probably not. Maybe #4 is an exception? Or perhaps I’m overthinking.

Another approach: Look at the answer pattern. Most answers are le, les, me, te, nos, os.

For #4, if it were direct object, it would be “los”, but that’s not in the indirect list. Since the table only has indirect pronouns, and the task is to use those, we must choose from me, te, le, nos, os, les.

Therefore, for “a tus abuelitos” (plural), it must be les.

Similarly, for #6, “a su perro” — animal, but still “le” is acceptable in many contexts.

So final decisions:

1. nos
2. les
3. os
4. les
5. le
6. le
7. me
8. le
9. le
10. le
11. me
12. os
13. le
14. me
15. le
16. les
17. le
18. te
19. le
20. le

Let me write them out clearly.

Final Answer:
1. nos
2. les
3. os
4. les
5. le
6. le
7. me
8. le
9. le
10. le
11. me
12. os
13. le
14. me
15. le
16. les
17. le
18. te
19. le
20. le
