¡Sí puedo! Can-Do Statements

Select the appropriate direct object pronoun (first, second, and third person).

In the previous section we learned in general about direct object pronouns, where they go in the sentence, and practiced with just the third-person pronouns “he/she/it” and “them”. But things can happen to “me” or to “you” or to “us” as well!

Now let’s learn the full list of direct object pronouns:

singular plural
Primera persona me nos
Segunda persona te os
Tercera persona lo, la los, las

Ejemplos:
