INDIRECT OBJECT PRONOUNS – p50

The indirect object is the person who __________________ the direct object or the person who ___________________ from the action of the verb. Use the preposition “____” before an indirect object.

Example: El peluquero le corta el pelo a la señora.

________= direct object ________ = indirect object

An indirect object pronoun stands for an ____________________________________. It can take the place of the indirect object noun or be used together with it.

¡OJO! In Spanish, the sentence must have the IDOP (Indirect Object Pronoun). The Indirect Object serves just to clarify to whom or for whom.

Example: Un banquero ____ presta dinero _________. (A banker lends Juan money.)

Un banquero ____ presta dinero. (A banker lends him money.)

Un banquero presta dinero a Juan. (INCORRECTO)

Indirect object ____________ follow the same placement rules as reflexive and direct object pronouns.

Indirect Object Pronouns:

____________ = to/for me ______________ = to/for us

____________ = to/for you ______________ = to/for you all
