Direct object pronouns replace direct object nouns.

The direct object pronouns lo, la, los, and las can refer to both objects and people.


The pronouns me, te, nos, and os refer ONLY to people.

Here are all the direct object pronouns:


SingularYo Me me

Tú te you (inf.)

él lo him, it you (formal)

ella la her, it you

(formal)

PluralNos. nos us

os you (inf.)

Ellos los them, you

Ellas las them, you


Remember that in Spanish the subject and the verb ending tell who does the action and the direct object pronoun indicates who receives the action.

¿Me ayudas, por favor? Can you help me please?


DOP’s usually come right before the conjugated verb.

When an infinitive follows a conjugated verb, the DOP can be placed before the first verb or attached to the infinitive.


¡No te entiendo! (Before the conjugated verb.) Quieren llevarnos al centro. (Attached to the infinitive.)
